Unexpected
It was a long weekend.
Lee’s aunt passed away. I didn’t know her well, but I liked her a lot. Lee’s Mom passed away several months after Lee and I started dating. His Dad has been dead since Lee was 8 years old. I met Lee’s aunt about a year after we started dating and things had become serious. I remember her southern charm and the kind words she spoke to me about Leon and their family. In the moments that I got to know her, I really liked her, not only because she was Lee’s aunt, but because she was a wise woman who knew how important her words were.
Lee’s aunt and uncle were married 61 years. His uncle is a gentleman and was deeply in love with his wife even after many years. So if you have a minute, please say a prayer for him as her passing wasn’t expected and I am sure his world feels like it was turned upside down.
Hugs,
marlene
