I'm so glad I got to see Aunt Eva before she passed. My last visit was with Susie and Aunt Mildred. We went to lunch at Wendy's and Aunt Eva had me laughing so hard. She remembered who I was then and I'm glad that's how I will remember our last visit. I love you Aunt Eva. Thankyou for the love you and Uncle Orbie showed me. Also the rest of the family. I always felt like family with you guys. Love you all!!!
