My Aunts

These are my ten aunts! My dad was the oldest of 12: next was a brother and then down the years, these lovely women!

Although I did not, as a child know them at all, when I got older I was able to spend some time with them both in the Northwest, Alaska and Illinois - where most of them lived. 

Right now there are 2 of these amazing women still walking this ground. 

They have an amazing story of separation and reunion...always taking care of each other.

I wish I had sisters...this is the closest I got.

​Rest in Peace each one and hat's off to Aunt Irma and Aunt Vera, still alive and smiling!
