Aunt Dell,
I sure am going to miss our late night chats. You and Uncle Larry have always been there for me and it has always been truly appreciated. I remember when you made these flowers for my installation as Worthy Advisor in Rainbow Girls. By the end of that, you hated flowers. =) But you did it for me because you loved me. You taught me more and more about crocheting. When I made something and actually finished it, I just had to come show you. I will always cherish my crocheted afghans from you and the ones that you made for my children when they were born. You will always be my crazy Coon-A Aunt that would do anything for me. I love you and miss you dearly already.
By the way, I know in my heart, that you are so proud of your men. We talked about this stuff before and you were not sure how it would all turn out, but your men have done an excellent job this week. So many special things that they have come up with, thought of, and did. I couldn't be more proud of them. It will be a beautiful service tomorrow. Rest in Peace Aunt Dell. Say Hi to my Momma for me.
