I want to express my sincere condolences to my family. Aunt Lu was very special to me and gave so much love to everyone in her life. My last time I saw her was in Surprise, AZ. I stayed with her and Uncle Bob were they made me feel like a queen. She cooked her favorite meal lasagna and made a special dessert called strawberry crisp. She was the best cook in the world and put so much love into it. Every night we played cards and laughed at silly things. Her compassion and sense of humor will be so missed. I just want to pickup the phone and call you one last time to hear your voice and tell you I love you. May your soul rest in peace and now you can be with your loved ones. One day we will be together again
