    To my Aunt Marcia,
    I will forever miss you. Not only were you my aunt but you were my best friend and my confidante. You finished my sentences for me when the words didn’t come. I will miss your beautiful smile every time someone walked into the house to visit you and your warm hugs which were so comforting. Now you are with the love of your life. You will always be in our hearts. I love you with all of my heart. Although you will be missed you will never be forgotten. ❤️

    After being with us for so long the house is empty. You were an integral part of our daily life. We shared, we cared, we loved and we respected each other. As I write this there is a hummingbird saying good morning to me. I know you are and will always be in our hearts. Your anniversary is tomorrow and you are going to be celebrating with your love. ❤️ We are missing you ❤️
