I am so sorry to hear of the passing of another of my dear aunts. I have many good memories of stopping at her house to get warm when Wayne and I had 'missed' the school bus and were trying to catch a ride to town. I remember her as a gracious person who was always pleasant. The world will be a lesser place without her. R.I.P. Aunt Mid., I look forward to seeing you in the resurrection.
