She helped me with my shorthand, she lost my shoe, she conquered Aunt Charlotte's peanut butter fudge recipe, she taught my son to the his shoes, she was a majorette in Macedon High School and gave her baton to me when finished, she built a model of her dream house from cardboard and glue while planning her wedding. When I left NYS, she gave me a decoupage plate she'd and said I could put it on a shelf and think of her. I look at it now and think of her. She was so much more. She was my sister, and I will miss her.
