What a wonderful tribute to and celebration of Aunt Mike's life. Thanks for sharing the pictures. Seeing your faces brought a flood of warm memories of the many Hanser gatherings of the past. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Uncle Jim, and my cousins, in this time of loss. May your memories and faith sustain you.

I will always remember Aunt Mike's gentle nature and distinctive chuckle. I never heard a cross word from her, and I can still hear her laughter above the others at family gatherings. My condolences to Uncle Jim and his family.

I don't think I ever heard Aunt Mike get angry. She might have sounded concerned from time to time but as her nephew who must have tried every one of her nerves as a young (hyperactive) child, I only remember her laugh. You will be missed, Aunt Mike. Love, Michael

I have only fond memories of Aunt Mike, and I am very happy to have had the pleasure of being around her at all the various parties, backyard picnics, etc. I can still see her smile and hear her laugh.
