Aunt Lily,
we spent many hours together with your husband, especially on Saturday night: eating, drinking, talking, celebrating. You were the first one to teach me English when I arrived from Italy. And you took me to Frontier High School to talk to the Principal so I could attend the school. You helped me during that difficult transition of not knowing the language and the country.
I will never forget the kindness you had toward me.
