Aunt Sue passed away at 6:40PM. I would like to share something about Aunt Sue now. She was my first babysitter. Sharen August 12, 2005
I remember Aunt Sue as being very confident and self assured, but she was never arrogant or a snob. – Joe Gurto August 13, 2005
I was just taking time to reflect on my memories of the day Aunt Sue died. I would like to go into detail. Aunt Sue was at the family reunion on Sat. on Sun. she went back into the hosp. and never came home. While she was home for a few days before going back into the hosp. She had Uncle Jim over to the condo to look at her grandfather clock which had stopped working. He told her he couldn’t fix it, it needed parts. After he left she went over to the clock and tried to move the hands to get it to work, but nothing happened. Anyway she went back into the hosp. She went into a coma and only came out of it once. The day she died I was sitting next to her and she was making a noise(trying to say something) like OH! OH! not the pain kind of sound but more like Ok now I understand. Aunt Effie, Aunt Lorraine, Uncle Frank, Uncle Jim, Uncle Pat, Aunt Gayle and Sherry where there. Aunt Lorraine took Aunt Effie home to get a few things(she had been staying at the hosp. the whole time). Aunt Lorraine was going to bring her back later and stay with her, Pam Miller had stayed the night before.(the nurses didn’t want Aunt Effie to be alone with Aunt Sue any more.) Anyway After Auntie Lorraine and Aunt Effie left, Uncle Frank left, then Uncle Jim left. Aunt Gayle, Uncle Pat and Sherry stayed for a little while longer. They too finally left, when they left I went to the restroom. When I came back out Aunt Sue had also left. I always tell everyone that when Uncle Pat walked out she was right behind him. Anyway a few days later I was sitting in the condo and happened to look at the grandfather clock. The hands had stopped at 6:40 P.M. Aunt Sue had sit the time, and it was the time Aunt Sue walked out of the hosp. for her final trip.
WE MISS YOU AUNT SUE AND WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU!! Love Sharen – August 13, 2010
Remember Me
Remember me when flowers bloom
Early in the spring.
Remember me on sunny days
In the fun that summer brings.
Remember me in the fall,
As you walk through the leaves of gold,
And in the wintertime – Remember me
In the stories that are told.
Remember me, as the sound of laughter,
And my face the moment after.
But most of all remember
Each day – right from the start,
For I will be forever near –
As I live within your heart.
“Though the distance that’s between us in miles
May be quite far,
Today you seem so very close because,
In thoughts, you are.”
