Aunt Lenora (my mother JoAnn is sister to Patrick) was such a kind and gentle person. Uncle Pat and Aunt Lenora were the model of a beautiful and enduring relationship, and their children are examples of their love and kindness.
Aunt Lenora embroidered towels for me when I married, and I will forever be reminded of her thoughtfulness when I use the towels.
