I had the best childhood! I loved living on the same step as Aunt Jane. We spent every summer on the front step singing, dancing, playing hopscotch, and jumping rope! Even better were the days when we would be in the pool all day. My mom and I were always with her. As the years went by and I stared to have children my kids knew her as Aunt Jane ad well. Her kindness, patience, and loving nature was always present. Most of all her smile and playful personality always warmed our hearts. My brother and I could tell a million stories of sitting on step through various stages of life and we knew she was at the kitchen window looking after us to make sure we were ok and not doing things we should not be doing! She will be in our hearts forever. I will carry her smile and laughter forever. Love you Aunt Jane.
