I spent the morning sharing memories of my Aunt Norma with my husband. There were many times she took me in while parents had a little time to themselves. I have deep gratitude for her being such a loving sister to my mother, Marilyn. Thank you, Aunt Norma. Peace to you and your family. You will be missed.
