In loving memory of a wonderful, loving Aunt who meant the world to me. She filled a void after the loss of my Mom, her sister, at the young age of 56. I will always cherish the memories of the closeness of our family growing up, the countless holidays, birthdays and so many other occasions we all spent together. I am so very lucky to have had Auntie Vi in my life for these many years and will carry beautiful memories with me always. Godspeed to you my sweet auntie. You are now in paradise with the Lord, Uncle George, all of your sisters and so many others that you love that went before you. You are now in a place where there no longer is sorrow or pain and where we some day will be together again.
Until then, farewell, and I send my love, hugs & kisses to you - Charmian
