A beautiful soul has received her wings and now resides in heaven.
What a blessing God granted us. He graciously gave us our beautiful memories, our most precious memories of you.
I remember celebrating Christmas at Aunt Shee Shee's and Uncle Art's, the house was always packed and wrapping paper always flying. The togetherness, the joyfulness, the food, the laughter, did I mention the food and a celebration of family was added to our time capsule. I remember staying til the wee hours of the morning or sometimes we'd make a slumber party of it and spend the night.
I remember our long goodbye's, the endless blowing of kisses and saying "I love you's," she was a beacon of light she breathed love, unconditional love.
I have cards and letters from Aunt Shee Shee that I will forever cherish and they have always given me a feeling of home of peace. How she described everything so vividly it was as if I was sitting right next to her. The scenery, the sun shining, the birds chirping, the leaves turning colors, the glistening of the freshly fallen snow, so many things that we take for granted. I could feel the sun and hear the birds and see the beautiful colors and the diamond like snow. She always gave you that moment to just be and reflect.
I remember being up at the cabin, just for the weekend or to celebrate a summer holiday, we would go on long walks, picking raspberries, swimming, (I'd always get burnt to a crisp), going for boat rides, bathing in the lake, seeing fireflies, shooting stars and the path of the moon across the lake. Yes and all the critters, LOTS of critters. Not to mention our many other adventures, oh, and can't forget limitless shopping trips.
You are one of the strongest people I have ever known, my hero, a love of my life. I'll miss you (my Lil Flea) dear sweet Aunt Shee Shee.
There are reunions going on in Heaven, I can hear you whistling your little tunes right now and I revel at the thought.
Until we see one another again, xoxoxo, I love you.
A beautiful soul resides in Heaven.
