My Aunt Margie, one of my Dad's sisters, is dying. She and her late husband, my Uncle Don, used to watch my brother and me when my parents went on vacations. She taught us Yahtzee and always made sure we had the name brand cereal in the little boxes. Spoiled us right rotten, and this continued into late life, granting us permission to hunt on her property over the past decade plus.
She's suffering from congestive heart failure and is currently non-responsive.
A middle-aged husband, father, bibliophile and history enthusiast commenting to no one in particular.
