I was around 11 or 12 the first time I meant Aunt Modene. Even though there was distance oif many miles I knew she loved me because she loved my dad so very much and he her. They grew p in the orphanage together. My dad told me he hit someone I the head with a milk bucket who was picking on her. He also told me when he was adopted ut he asked to go back to be with her. I will always remember her smile and her laugh. I will always remember the love she and my Dad had for each other. It is nice to see all the nice things her family are sharing.
