“Forever on Thanksgiving Day, the heart will find the pathway home.” ~ Wilbur D. Nesbit

The one thing I am thankful for above all this year is that I got to see my aunt when we were in Hawai’i last month.
Almost two weeks ago, I learned she had passed away. She fell at home and never regained consciousness. She had dementia and didn’t know who I was, but seemed happy in the little world she had created for herself.

In addition to giving thanks for family, friends, and good health, I will be celebrating my aunt’s life and reflecting on good times. Auntie Ella was my godmother, my mother’s younger sister, and since she lived just 10 minutes away, we saw each other often while I was growing up.
