I remember Aunt Erma for her kindness and laughter. She was a great communicator for our family always writing letters telling us the important events as well as mundane activities going on in the family. Her letters made me smile because they always ended with “well, I see the mailman is coming so I will sign off for now”. She made wonderful spaghetti adding some sauce to the entire bowl before serving it. No one has ever done that in my lifetime. Rest In Peace Aunt Erma. We love you!
