DEAR AUNT ANNA,
YOU WERE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LOVELY AUNT
ANYONE COULD POSSIBLY WANT. WE HAD LOTS OF FUN TOGETHER ESPECIALLY WHEN
YOU STAYED AT DAVID'S WITH AUNT RUTH
THOSE RED SKELTON TAPES REALLY MADE
YOU LAUGH HARDILY.
YOU WERE ALWAYS SO PLEASANT, KIND TO
EVERYONE AND ALL YOUR SISTERS AND BROTHER IN LAWS LOVED YOU SO MUCH.
WHEN WE PLAYED CARDS YOU ALWAYS SERVED
EVERYONE SNACKS AND OBSERVED THE GAME,
NEVER PLAYING THAT I REMEMBER.
WE WERE SO GRATEFUL WHEN YOU TOOK AUNT
HELEN IN WITH YOU AND UNCLE KENNETH
WHEN SHE BROKE HER SHOULDER. YOU CATERED TO
HER EVERY MINUTE. FOR ALL THE KIND
WORDS YOU SAID WE NOW KNOW YOU ARE IN
GOD'S LOVING ARMS.
WHEN AUNT RUTH AND I VISIT BACK IN MAY
WE WEREN'T SURE IF YOU REMEMBER US BUT
WHEN YOU SENSE OF HUMOR CAME OUT IT
BROUGHT BACK SO MANY MEMORIES. I
THINK YOU DID KNOW US

YOU WILL BE MISSED

LOVE,

RUTHANNA, DAVE, DAVID AND BEV
