Hello, Cousins! I was very sorry to hear about Aunt Ava. It's been a long time since we saw her, but I'll always remember her sitting at the piano with Mom, banging out the old songs with gusto. Actually, they weren't bad. If you'll forgive me for lapsing into Catholic, they're probably doing the same in Heaven now. Please get in touch when you have a minute and we'll swap memories. With sincere sympathy.
