I will always remember my Auntie Bell's smile, sense of humor and love of life. As I grew up and visits became few or never, I will hold in my heart the memories of visiting her on Sundays with my mom and dad when she lived in Oakland, and how I loved just being with her to share stories and hear her laughter. It was contagious. The sadness I feel is deep and I will keep her and her entire family in my prayers. May God bless all of you.
