My very special Aunt Shirley . . . I'm sorry I lost touch with you after your last move. I tried to find you to come and visit again, but failed until now :(. I have wonderful memories of you from when I was a child. I still love your candy dish that you sent to me. I keep it filled with happiness. I love you and miss you as I miss my parents and two brothers.
