My dear aunt, Aunt Pat, has died.
I deeply loved Aunt Pat and Uncle John, having spent many a weekend with them either in St. Vincent or Bemidji, and later on a bit in New Mexico. My memories will always be of a smart, capable, FUN lady who was warm and loving in her own unique way. She was an inspiration to me of living life to the fullest - friends and good times - what else is there?
From Delphine, about her mother (my aunt Pat) and mine (Harriet): You know Mom and Aunt Harriet loved each other so much but at the same time they could get into a heated argument every time they were together 5 minutes. Your Mom was always so mad at my mom saying she knew everything and wouldn't listen to anything she had to say and my mom was always complaining to me about the same thing about your mom. So I was always hearing from each of them how mad they were at the other one. LOL. So right after mom died we had a thunder storm here and I said "Oh Oh Mom and Harriet are at it again already." LOL I will think of that now every time I hear thunder.
