saying goodbyes..

I have delt with 2 deaths of my family members with in weeks of each other. 😦
My mom’s sister, Sharla J. Miller, passed away on Wednesday, April 11, 2012.. I was unable to attend the services for my Aunt. =( She reminded me so much of my grandma Boshane. Such a lovely lady with great laughter.. She will be greatly missed. I love you Aunt Sharla..

Then, my loving cousin Dorlene Ann McIntosh Sider passed away April 24th at 2pm. She battled Stage 4b Squamous Cell Carcinoma.
yesterday was a gathering of celebration for Dorlene. It was beautiful. She is a Veteran of the United States Army. and they did the Flag Folding Ceremony. Very beautiful! We all said some loving memories of her, and shared some great stories and shared some laughter and tears.
She holds a very large spot in my heart.. always and forever being told by family, how I remind them of Dorlene. I always wanted to be like her growing up. Her hair, her style, her beauty, and even her nose piercing. To me, she was my idol…
We shared a special bond for cousins. To her, I was her mini Dorlene, and always will be.. She will be forever loved and remembered in my heart! You will be missed but never forgotten!
