My heart breaks today. My Aunt passed away early this morning.
This was a shock, and completely unexpected.
She was an awesome Aunt, and I often told her she was my favorite. She always made me laugh. She was so fun to be around, and so positive. I will miss writing letters to her. I will miss getting letters from her. I will miss our chatter about books, and I will miss sending her books. I will miss sending her home canned jelly and jam, and I will miss her text messages I got when she received anything from me. I will miss her love, her love for life, her advice, her family stories, her laugh, her voice, her generosity, her everything.
If you are a praying sort of person, please keep my mother in your thoughts and prayers. She is missing her sister pretty badly today. It will be a very difficult day for us all. Mom especially.
