Hi Aunt Mabel , this many years have past and you're still missed. The older I get ( now in my 50s ) , the more I see how wise , loyal and wonderful you were to us 3 girls. You never turned your back on us, you stood tall against adversity and always spoke the truth. It's you out of every adult I had in my life as a child that I hope to most favor. I love you.
