Aunt June,
I will fondly remember all the summers (and winters) that we enjoyed visiting you, Uncle Deming and family: snowmobiling, camping, swimming, waterskiing, and learning to ride a motorcycle. He was very kind and understanding... He had to be understanding when all of us were teenagers (I think we added a few grey hairs to everyone!). I will miss him.
