Sorry to hear about Aunt Elizabeth. It has been a long time since I have seen her, but she has been thought about often. She was always good to me when I visited with my Grandmother Bowers. She made the best lemon meringue pie, just for me. It is still my favorite pie! My prayers are with you Poppy and Pat and their family.
