Running around on the Boardwalk during those warm summer nights with free tickets from Aunt Dot's secret stash in the closet....laughing and screaming on the roller coaster, flying off the spinning wheel into the cushions at the fun house, remembering you meeting me at your front door for years with a can of oven cleaner saying, "Will you clean my oven?", The loving care you put into the needlepoint dish towels for each day of the week when you drew my name for Kranich Christmas, and the warm chocolate cookies you sent me home with when I stopped by to say "Hello" while making sales calls in Santa Cruz. And then there was the last time I saw you in October....walking into the dining room with your walking stick and gently poking some guy at the table (with a huge grin on your face) just to let him know who was in charge. Every memory of you ends with a great big smile! Thanks for the memories Aunt Dot and I will see you on the other side:)
