I will always think of you when I hear myself carefully choosing and pronouncing my words. I remember listening to you speak with such clarity, grace, and quiet confidence. There was a natural elegance in the way you carried yourself, even in conversation. As a little girl, I admired that more than you probably ever knew, and I would find myself trying to speak just like you. I believe a little of the way I speak today is because of you. Because of that, a part of you will always live on in me.
With love always, Aunt Gal. You will truly be missed.
Our condolences and prayers are with you Sissy and Jay! May God give you strength during this time. ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ
