Aunt Edna is one special lady. She is my Dad's sister and has always been a very important part of our family. Keith, Diane, Mom and I had the pleasure of spending a Saturday with her and Bob and Lynetta. Needless to say we all had a great time. Aunt Edna is 89 years old and her memory is still sharp as a tack. I love being around her and listening to stories. This time she showed a quilt that my Great Grandma, Anna Fox Woodburn, had made way back in the late 1800's or early 1900's. She gave me a handkerchief that my Great Grandma had sewn the lace edging on. All I can say is they don't make stuff like that anymore. Nowadays things are good if they last a year, let alone a couple hundred years. That is what I call quality.
I am so glad I got to spend the day with such a special lady. She is one heck of a lady and brings back so many great memories of her, Uncle Melvin and Dad and Mom. I think alot about Dad when I am around her.
Thanks Aunt Edna, Bob and Lynetta for a great day. Some more pics follow.
