Aunt Philly. as I called her, was a joy to be around. Unfortunately, once they moved to Arizona the visits were few. She loved her family and big Sunday dinners were a tradition. She never failed to call me on my birthday and we would catch up and share lots of laughs and memories. She will
be so missed.
