Note: er family for over 20 years. Anyone that was around all of us together couldn't believe how well we got along or how much fun we had together, no matter what we did.
She loved the fact we could have family dinners and just enjoy being with each other. Myself, I couldn't have picked a better family to have & made sure they knew it every chance I got. My best memories were of being with all of them and those memories I treasure above all else in this world.
Didn't matter, my Mom, Harrys' Mother-In-Law from his first marriage, kids from all sides.. we all belonged. I think Sis would like to be remembered for that more than all else. She would take the smaller kids and fill a can with water and let them "paint" the house, or always have a hug for any of us when she was happy or sad.
2. Sis was married once before but the love of her life was Harry! They would put a big garden in each year and can the produce together. Fact is, they enjoyed being together so much that it rubbed off on whoever was around. I learned alot from both of them!
Her birthday was the day before mine so we would go out to dinner and celebrate both at the same time. The week-end we'd have a family dinner, like having 2 birthdays each year that way!
3. If any of you were around Sis & Harry and the family, then I don't need to tell you how good of a cook both were! Harry & Sis would make wine every year and for dinners, we'd try out the new batch. The ham or turkey was always cooking in the basement kitchen and the rest of the meal in the upstairs kitchen. You were hungry just walking through the door...
4. She loved all her grandkids dearly! After Harry died, she told me how much she enjoyed seeing Anne & Daniel & Karlie. I was happy she had them around to help her.
Not much to add except I wish everyone could be around a close family like we had...
Note: 1. Sis was a wonderful person to be around. I should know, I had the honor of being part of h
