A Sad, Sad Day
by Slack, on March 10th, 2004
Yesterday my aunt passed away in a tragic car accident. She was not a blood aunt, but so very close to me and my family that she might as well have been. All my life I called her tita, like I do my other Filippino aunts. She and her family have always been there for my family and I. She helped out when she could with advice and other things when both my father and mother were in the hospital (she was an ICU nurse). She was such a strong, intelligent and successful woman. Truly a tragedy to lose her…
My heart goes out to her family and my sincere condolences for the loss of a wonderful woman. The loss is shared by all who knew her. Being that she is not blood I don’t feel it’s my place to really be speaking about this, so I will leave it at this, and of course refrain from using names… Suffice it to say that it has affected Heidi and I, and she won’t be soon forgotten….
I am so sorry for the loss of someone so dear to you. Keep her memory in your heart.
Looking forward to Sunday. Let me know if you need me to bring anything. Rhys is looking wonderful! Such a beautiful boy! Can’t wait until I can see him again.
All our Love,
Bob & Kathy

Dear Allen and all,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. The world always seems emptier when someone we know and love is no longer here with us, but have gone on to heaven.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Kathy
My deepest sympathies to you on your loss.
Dear Cous,
I’m very sorry for your loss of your adopted Aunt. Some family members are born to you, others you get to pick. It hurts just as much to lose them.
Love,
Sue
