Auntie nicknamed me Wee-Johnny because mom was to give birth to a little boy, but low and behold a little girl was born. The nickname stuck with me and I answered to it even as an adult. As a child, there were many nights I would sit on Aunties lap and eat chocolate chocolate chip ice cream with her while we watched TV. Simply stated, Auntie was an awesome woman and I will miss her dearly. My condolences to Doug and Fitz.

My nickname was Mrs. Jones. I loved to hear her voice when I would call and say who it was. I shall miss her terribly.
So sorry for your loss.

Loving children was Bunty’s life, and she loved all without reservations. She especially adored her family, The Chipman family, and her fondness for them and they for her was unmistakable. She loved my father, Richard, and they found in each other a match of wits. I am so lucky that Bunty was in my life, her accepting presence was unique. Thank you, Bunty and God Bless.
Love, Francie Dancie
