When our mother died [Aunt Marion's sister] my sister Paulette and I called her Auntie Mommy. I remember her for her kind and wise words. She was always there when I needed her. Paulette and I visited her 2 years ago. She was funny and warmhearted as always. How lucky we were to have had her for so long.
Love to all of the Sang family---Cousin Bonnie
