I don't have or know the words to express my feeling from the passing of Aunt Lil.
She has always been in my life during happiness and sorrow, we used to wait on the city bus together when I went to school, all of my freinds used to say there's your Aunt Lil.
The lose fo Aunt Lil is just like the lose of my mom and dad, Aunt Val and Uncle Jimmy, Aunt Lil was just part of my life.
She will always be in my heart and my prayers just as she has always been.
We are all family so my thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time and always.
