Missing you every day, Auntie!

I miss you so much!!

I love and miss you Auntie... sharing a memory when we all met up for Kyle´s graduation as a US Marine in South Carolina

We are all better people for having known Mike! I'm am so sad that I will never see her again (in this life). My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

From listening to my Dad playing Jazz in Arbor Hill, to Lake Tahoe, San Francisco, Wilmington DE, Philadelphia, South Carolina and Albany, NY... you've always been in my life and will forever remain there. Love Henry
