From all the amazing baked goods to playing soccer and "army" in her backyard to having to take your shoes off before you walked in her house Mrs. Meinl will be remembered for these things and so much more. Because of her I now take my shoes off before I walk in my own house. As a kid I was fascinated when family from Europe would stay next door, I couldn't believe she knew people from another continent and that she could communicate with them. To this day I can still hear her calling Ricky into the house. Because of her I have gotten to know her amazing mother, children and grandchildren. I love you Mrs. Meinl you will be missed. Mafalda wouldn't have been Mafalda without you.
