September 22, 2021 at 12:40 pmDearest Sister-Sue,
It was always a joy to talk to you on your way home from work, etc., so that you would not be alone if you hit another one of those “oh, shits” on your way home, or remember the time you tried to catch my oven on fire!
You will always be my “Special Sister.”
