My dear Aunt Nookie was my favorite Aunt. The one my 8 year old self was going to live with whenever I ran away from home. The tiny person with the biggest, most genuine laugh. Hugs that squeezed the breath out of you. A sister that made my beloved Grandmother so happy. It seems like they were always drinking coffee and laughing. The best popcorn balls every Halloween. Be at peace. There's a hot cup of coffee and a slice of pie waiting for you.
