We will miss Aunt Tootie - we have fond memories of family get-togethers, stopping by for visits, and when her and Bud would come to watch the girls play softball.

I loved you so much Aunt Tootie. You were always so sweet. I remember how you and Uncle Bud made me feel so special as a little girl. I remember coming and staying at your house for a week or two in the summers when I was young like it was my best summer vacation! Aunt Tootie would buy me my own new book of paper dolls and Uncle Bud would buy me my own carton of ice cream.....You made my life happier and I love and appreciate you for that...Love Jeanette
