One of my fondest memories is the sound of Aunt Nellie's LAUGHTER. Hearing her laugh brought so many memories flooding through my heart. There is a little memory in my mind about how we had just finished redoing our kitchen walls and ceiling and we were celebrating it when Aunt Nellie and Uncle Sid came over to visit and Dad asked her to pop the cork on a bottle of his home made pink champagne and the cork flew off and the champagne flew up to the ceiling and over the walls. We had Aunt Nellie laughing so hard that to this day I can still hear her. We love and miss you Aunt Nellie Rest in peace and make sure you look for my Mom and Dad up there. (((HUGS))) from your nieces Georgina, Mary and Shirley.
