Loss
My dear sweet aunt Net died unexpectedly Sunday night. She was in the hospital but expecting to go home the first of the week. We are all so sad. She was an absolutely wonderful person. I can't begin to tell you how good she was. She was my mother's youngest sister and had visited my mother at least once a week since mother's stroke in November. She lived her life the way we all should. One of her daughters told me she found a note her mother had written to herself praying to be a better person. I honestly don't know how she could have been better. She was always thinking of others and what she could do for them. She leaves a husband, three daughters and nine grandchildren. Also, many nieces and nephews and other family members and friends who loved her dearly.
