Dear Karen and family,
I just learned of Hanna this moment. I have tried to call her house and there was no answer so I looked on the internet. I am so sorry to learn of her passing. She was always such a beautiful part of my life, my beautiful Godmother. When I was little she would always send me a Christmas gift, something homade and beautiful. I treasured them. When she came to visit the last time she gave me her receipe for her apple pie she always made for Joe. We spend many good hours together on that visit. I treasure the memories. Hanna and my mother were the best of friends. When my mother's house was bombed in Germany they moved into a little three room apartment with Hanna and her family and they took care of each other. My mother took me to visit Germany when I was three years old and Hanna went also. I have pics from that trip...and the ship on which we sailed. Hanna and my Mother had a friendship as sisters and it was beautiful....so giving and caring for each other. I will miss her but carry her in my heart as I do my precious Mother that went to heaven this last December 1st. I imagine they are having coffee and cake together in a place that is more beautiful than we can even imagine. I love my precious Mother and I love you Hanna, my precious Godmother. Rita Johanna Samons Daniels.

I remember Aunt Hanna smiling and laughing and finding the positive in any hardship. One of my first memories of her was when I was five years old. Aunt Hanna came to stay with my family to help my mother who had just returned from a prolonged hospital stay. I took her out for a walk in my neighborhood and I recall that she allowed me to be the leader in what were unfamiliar surroundings for her. I showed her how I walked to school. She played along with me as I faked that we were lost. She laughed and laughed along with my laughter. Laughter always came so easy to Aunt Hanna. That is one of my fondest memories of her - her ability to enjoy the simple things in life and to truly enjoy the company of another human being. Just to be together and to share a moment had tremendous meaning. That is what I learned from her even during her last years. It was just so pleasant and rewarding to visit and share the simple pleasure of togetherness over a cup of tea and a sweet. It reminded me to be still. I will miss her dearly.

Karen & Jon,
I want to express my heartfelt condolences for your loss. I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to meet Drew's grandmother and to see how much she influenced the closeness of your family. It is what I will always remember about all of you.
