Aunt Mae

It's only natural to feel sad when you have lost someone so dear but we know Wee would not want the feeling to linger. Wee would be laughing and enjoying life as he did so well; remember his smile and his crazy laugh and automatically a smile erects. So be sad if you must but we all know Wee would prefer your smile.

Grace and Peace be unto you and the rest of the family; I love you all!
