Our family has lost a treasure, but Heaven has gained an angel.I will be forever grateful that you were a part of my life - You taught us the true meaning of the words, grace, dignity, class, and "lady". Rest in peace, Aunt Val - your life was a "job well done". I will always miss you and I will always love you.
