I will always have fond memories of the time I spent with you and "Uncle Crosby" when I was little. I always thought of you as my aunt instead of my cousin. I will miss you very much!

I love you and will miss you Aunt Malvina. What gives me comfort is knowing you are home with our Heavenly Father and our family that went home before you.
