Condolences

I send my deep condolences to my aunt's family. Valeria (Sis) was my favorite aunt for a very small thing that she did for me when I was a young teenager. Our families were at an outdoor event and out of the blue she gave me a small amount of money to "have a good time with". I just thought so much of her for that small good deed. I told her many times how much that meant to me. She was a wonderful hostess to my family when we would meet at her house for the afternoon or for lunch. I loved Joe's passion for cars and Sis's tolerance and love for him and her children. She will be missed by those who loved her.
