Aunt Alice Passed Away

My father's sister, Alice, passed away yesterday. She had the same firey personality as my Dad. His once large family has been reduced over time to my father, his brother Clary and his brother Bernie.

My mom's family of six now remains only herself and her sister Mary.

It must be so hard, as you age, to watch all of those you know and love to pass on to the other side. Being the youngest of eight I wonder if I, too, will be one of the last remaining of my family in the decades to come.

My prayers go out to everyone touched by Alice's bright life, especially my wonderful and wounded parents.

Her funeral will be held in Hot Springs and her ashes will be interred Kokomo, Indiana.
