My Aunt Merny, I could talk to you about everything from nuts in a pie, to what kind of day we're having or what am going to do without Mom? And all in between. You never judged nor scolded me when I made horrendously terrible decisions in my life....you guided me and I always felt your love and concern. I'm in awe of the depth, capacity and generosity of the love you harbored. I love and miss you more than you will ever know.

My Aunt Merny, I could talk to you about everything from nuts in a pie to I'm having a bad day, or what do I do now that Mom is gone. In all my horrendously terrible decisions I made, you never judged nor scolded...only guided me. I will desperately miss talking to you about everything. My love and prayers to all my cousins and Uncle Don. Aunt Merny, I Love and Miss you more than you will ever know!

I recently had the honor of giving Mrs. Masters' sister and two of her daughters a tour of St. Mary's Home for Disabled Children when the family dropped off Christmas presents for the children -- a tradition started years ago by Mrs. Masters. Mrs. Masters' legacy of kindness and generosity lives on through her lovely family.
