So sorry to hear of Aunt Nancy's passing. I have thought of her often over the years. She was always kind and caring, and so thoughtful of me.

Uncle Dick, I know you heard this many 1000's of times...I'll always think of the click-clacking of Aunt Nancy's high heels. The memory brings a smile to my face. God bless you, Kenn.
