Sadness

I was just thinking about Aunt Carolyn.  She has gone to be with Uncle Al now.   I know that will make them both so happy.   They had over 50 years together before Uncle Al passed.   Aunt Carolyn was around a lot longer.   She was the sweetest woman I think I ever met.   I never heard her say something bad about someone else.   She seemed to follow her own advice.... If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.   She was a grand lady, much to be admired, very loved by all who met her....   We spent a lot of quality time together when I was younger.   Our men would be out hunting and we would be at the camp, just talking and talking.   Anyone who knew Aunt Carolyn knew she loved to talk...  :)  Of course, as she talked she would be making those little bisquits we loved to eat.   She was a mentor to me as I was learning to be a wife and mother.   I pray that one day I can be as gracious as she was.


She will be missed.


Amen.
