My aunt was compassionate and loved by me and my husband so much. We miss her deeply and knowing her love of God is where she sings, We still love her with each passing hour. She is defintely missed and I am glad to have known such a courageous woman. A bushel and a peck Aunt Ann and a monkey and a barrel. Jesus is smiling.
