I remember how Aunt Rosalyn enjoyed working in her garden and the beautiful flowers she work so hard on. She didn’t appreciate the golfers that would come in her yard looking for their golf balls.
I remember her having a drawer full of them. Ransom maybe?
(Edit: a drawer of golf balls, not golfers)
I remember our long phone visits & sitting on her sun porch admiring her flower garden ! We could talk about so many projects ! Her home was filled with beautiful antiques, the big bouquet of sunflowers by her kitchen window. I wish, I could have heard her play the piano more. We enjoyed the Father’s Day get togethers at their home. Our prayers to all her family & friends.
