I grew up next door to Aunt Leo. I admired her and Uncle Charlie's marriage. They were devoted to each other and fun. I can still hear their laughts! Leo loved children, and she would refer to toddlers as "little fellers" when she'd tell stories about them. Uncle Charlie used to call me "little boy" to get a protest out of me. So many good memories! I loved them both so much. I know Aunt Leo is with Uncle Charlie now, and that makes me smile.
