Aunt Henrietta was always such an elegant lady. When I was a child, I used to love her visits. She was always smiling and cheerful. She will be missed. I hope Rick and Mary find comfort in happy memories of their mom.

This is a very good picture of her. She was a short little lady but that didn’t stop her from keeping busy . I remember going to her house visiting with her and your Dad. They were both such nice people. I am so sorry for your loss. Losing a Mother is losing a great part of your life, not only your Mother but also your best friend. I still hurting from losing mine 🙏🙏🙏
