My grandmother,T.Ennequess(Frigard) was Aunt Vi's sister.I met Aunt Vi once years ago at my mother and fathers house in Laconia,NH.The family enjoyed an afternoon on our back deck. It was very apparent the sisters were enjoying there time together. I do remember aunt Vi's laugh, very infectious.It was remarkable to me how similar it was to grandmothers. After reading Richard's coments in the obituary I could apply some of the traits to my grandmother. They both shared loves for family,cooking...

Years and years ago, Aunt Vi gave me an adorable zippered pouch that had the prettiest quilted design on it. It was the perfect fit for my makeup and little important things that I take with me when I travel, and I have used it ever since. It's perfect and lovely and I think of her often when I use it. I'm not sure if that little story has much of a point or brings any comfort (as much as a story about a makeup bag can), but I wanted to llustrate that Auntie Vi is always in my...

Very sorry to hear of your mothers passing. I wish I would have gotten the chance to share her smile.

Dear Ilona and Bob: Our sincere condolences on the passing of your mother, always known to us as Aunt Vi. Although we had not seen each other for many years, we thought of her often. It's difficult to say good bye to the last of my Father's sisters and brothers, of which there were so many. I believe the last times we met were at Dad's and then Mom's funerals, at which time she passed on to us much of the family history. I still have those notes and will treasure them always. May she...

Dear Ilona
I was so sorry to hear of your loss.
I know how close you and your mother were and how hard it is especially when you have such a wonderful relationship. Please find comfort in your memories and know she will be with you always. With love, Kathy

Dear Ilona: I didn't know your mother. However reading Richard's tribute to her, I can understand how she contributed to you and your brother's life and still had love left over for everyone she knew. She sounds like an extraordinary woman and mother.
