Dearest Carolyn,David, and Muriel,
I have many fond memories of Aunt Gertie. Her visits to Hartford, Old Lyme, and Florida were highlights filled with the sisters shopping for bargains; making sure not to spend a penny more than necessary, while still being most generous (quite a feat!), and of course peppered with Gertie's honesty. We could always count on that. She always spoke her mind and that's something very important I learned from her.
I'll always miss her. My love to you all. Cousin Rhonda
