ReplyDeleteAunt Velma was always so good to me. I loved her smile and how her eyes sparkled when she smiled. I love the way she said my name. She always had a way of making me smile wheneve I saw her. I will miss not seeing her when we travel to Indiana. She was a great lady. I''m so happy that I will see her again in heaven someday. Love to all my precious cousins during this sad time.
