    Aunt Mary was my father's closest sibling and we got to visit her and her family just about every summer as we were growing up. Aunt Mary was such a warm loving person. I always looked forward to visiting her and my cousins. Aunt Mary had 7 children and never even blinked when my cousin LouAnn would ask if we could spend the night. Aunt Mary was also a great role model to me when it came to how do we care for our parents and how do we care for our elder siblings... she did this with immense love and patience. She loved family and was loved greatly by her family, including me. Love you Aunt Mary!!! Give my Daddy a kiss for me ??????
