My great-aunt Evelyn just died. I knew she was sick but she has been sick for the last 30 years (she had lung cancer around the time I was born) and to tell you the truth I always thought she was too stubborn to die.

I just mailed her a letter yesterday.

I don't know where the funeral will be, hopefully it will be here because I don't know if I could make it to Colorado right now because I am going out of town in a couple weeks. However, she would have told me to go on a trip over going to a funeral, even hers.


This is something she wrote me in a letter last summer that I love:
Advice:
Hike in beautiful places
Take a trip to an exotic place
Buy a new outfit
Do something outrageous
Pet your animals
Write us
Stay healthy

She was the most awesome person. I wish I could be that daring in life.
