Aunt Betty Jane (" aunt" was a term of respect) always had a smile on her face and time for all kids. I will always remember her infectious laughter. She explained to this terrified little kid that it was normal for a cat to drop a dead mouse on her porch. Thanks for all the lessons she taught me and the love she gave us all. She will forever be in all our hearts.
