Auntie Ray was my Great Aunt. Her sister Elaine is my Grandmother and Elaine is my Dad's Mom. My Dad is Neil Satterwhite. The last time I saw her was when my Dad, my sister and my two kids and I went to Windsor Locks to visit her. We had a wonderful time at her house. She cooked for us and made us feel at home. Her house and the community was charming and I will never forget that wonderful visit. I was so fortunate for my kids to have experienced it as well. They were only about 1 and 3 years old at the time. My thoughts and prayers are with the rest of the family at this time. I will never forget her cozy house and the special time we had together during that reunion.

Auntie Ray was my great aunt. Her sister, Elaine Satterwhite, is my grandmother, and her son, Neil Satterwhite, is my father.
I always enjoyed Auntie Ray's stories and her soft, sweet voice. We would sit around Grammy Elaine's dinner table in Texas and she would make us laugh with her endearing, light-hearted sense of humor.
Several years ago, my father wanted to reconnect with his roots, and asked my sister, Mercy, and I, to accompany him on a road-trip to Windsor Locks. Although I had never been there before, I had heard so many stories about the little town stopped in time.
It was a beautiful community. I was surprised to learn how many relatives I had within just a few blocks of Auntie Ray's home. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming to us.
We so enjoyed our visit with Auntie Ray, Auntie Mal, and the entire extended family. Auntie Ray's home was a warm, inviting place, complete with a front porch where we sat for hours, laughing and catching up.
The trip was a wonderful chance for us all to reconnect with our roots, and was the last time I saw Auntie Ray. My heart goes out to her sisters, and other surviving family members. She was a jewel that will be missed.
Sincerely,

I knew Elida when I was young girl. My mother, Mary Manion worked with her at the tax department for all of those years. I started working with her myself when I was 17. I recall that she was always dressed so impeccably. I took my mom to visit her in Windsor Locks after they both retired and all they did was laugh. I have nice memories of her. My sympathies to all of her family.
