I remember Aunt Winnie well growing up as a child and into adulthood. She was always happy to see us coming for a visit and bringing along friends or girlfriends (as we grew) to meet her. She was always very interested in what we were doing in our own lives and asked lots of questions when we would respond with a typical teenage answer of "not much". During our last visit we had the opportunity to bring our children along whom she welcomed in the same manner as she did us as children. She had a great sense of humour and regardless of how she may have been feeling on the day you happened to pop in could always muster a smile and had laughter in her chest. I was recently reminded by my Mother of how Aunt Winnie was never one for goodbyes; something I hadn't noticed much or taken for granted, but certainly true. I believe the parting words were "till next time", so on that note Aunt Winnie....till next time.
Love
