My Great Aunt Charlotte, 98, has died. Even though it was expected, it still saddens me. I know she is back in the embrace of her sweetheart, Uncle Pete, and surrounded by the family she loves so much. Those of us she left behind will have to wait a season before we see her again, and it comforts me to know she will be there waiting for my mother. The two of them were so very close, and loved each other so much.
Her daughters, my cousins Charmaine and Diane, gave her so much love and devotion. I am glad that Charlotte was able to die at home in her own bed, surrounded by love and peace. What a beautiful gift her daughters gave to her.
I'm glad I am a member of such a loving family.
Goodbye Charlotte. Love you.
