She was my aunt and Godmother.

For those that cared to watch, walking with great strength, humility and belief in God you navigated the waves and turbulence of this earthly life. It is possible to have an active life beyond 100. We have been blessed to have witnessed your long healthy life that has been inspirational to family, friends, and my colleagues.
