Andrea Szymanski-Larracuente
Yesterday
What can I say about my Great-Aunt Jackie? She was a lovely woman with a gentle spirit and a deep, abiding faith. As a young girl, I would call her up on Saturdays and ask if I could come over and I would get to spend the whole day with her & Uncle Dan. We would bake brownies and sing together. Lord knows she & I were always singing! I remember when Uncle Danny was in his "bread machine baking phase," & she confided to me, "Oh, Andrea, he's making me crazy with all of this bread he's making!" She said it on a laugh. As I got older, I spend less and less time with them, as happens, and I regret not spending more. Family was her everything and she was so proud of her children and their accomplishments, and of her grandchildren. I remember when each grandchild was on the way and how excited she & Uncle Danny were! Her grandchildren were truly her treasures. I am so blessed to have been able to spend the time with them both that I did. I know she as at peace in heaven, surrounded with her loving family that preceded her, and singing with the angels. Until we meet again, Aunt Jackie... love always, Andrea Jane.
