How do you sum of the life of 95 years in a paragraph?
Aunt Marie was a christian woman who loved her family and friends deeply. She endured more than I am sure any of us ever knew about, but had the strength of 100 men. I have no doubt that she is right where she always dreamed of being.
Notes and messages
A funny story about her is one time I was visiting her in her apartment in KC, KS, she was taking her pills. She dropped one on the kitchen floor and she said, "Oh, Mende will you help me look for it"? I said, "Sure what does it look like"? She said, "Well, huh, it's round with the corners cut off" We laughed and laughed and even years later we would joke about something being round with corners cut off.
