I will always remember my Aunt Anna as greeting you with a smile, that made you feel special. As we bring up memories we will cry today and hopefully we will again bring up those memories with smiles to our faces, when somewhere down the road we can give in to those memories without tears, allow those memories to wash over us, and think how lucky we were to have had Auntie Anna in our lives....and then smile the smile with which she would want us to remember her.
