And Then There Were Two

One little, two little, three little sisters. Papa could sing that song all the way up to 10. And now there are two. Last Friday, Alfreda succumbed to Leukemia that had been diagnosed in January. That leaves Monique, who recently suffered a stroke and is recuperating with her daughter Merrielle, and Julia who had surgery this year for a cyst removal from her breast that was benign.

I didn't realize there were any. That means Caity (and others) have Great, Great, Great Aunts.


No comments from the peanut gallery!

It has been many years since gerard died.

Sorry to hear about Alfreda. This family sure has had some solid health. I hope Monique isn't suffering too much, and very glad that Julia's cyst was benign.

It's sad to hear that our family is dwindling.

Cheryl,
The family is not dwindling it is being regerated from the bottom. Dawn's kids are doing their best to do it.

The sad part is that we do not know all our cousins, second cousins and third cousins.

Hmmmmm......that sounds like a hint for a good old fashioned Family Reunion.
