Linda, Minnie was quite a headstrong lady and I know you were a very devoted niece to her. Hopefully we'll all see her one day in heaven. God Bless you. Phyllis Dodzweit

Aunt Minnie was a special woman who sacrificed much for her family. I once asked her what her dreams were as a girl. Her reply was, "I always thought I'd like to be a nurse." Though that particular dream was never fulfilled, she often took care of us all over her many years on earth.
May she be blessed in heaven.
Love you, Aunt Min!
