Dear Aunt Anka, Thank you for being such a loving and gentle Aunt. I remember you giving me certain nicknames, two in particular, when I went to visit you at Grandma's house during the summers of my youth. You always made me laugh. Now you will share that laughter with the angels. Love, your niece Andrea
