Aunt Liz was such a lovely, classy presence whenever we saw her at visits or reunions. However, she also had realistic way of looking at life which oftentimes included unexpected humor. I loved going to their huge house in Connecticut for Thanksgiving then wandering off to any bed upstairs to sleep it off - like Goldilocks. My heart goes out to Bob and Dan - your mom and dad were very special.
