My Aunt Maudie lived an amazing life, She grew up poor but happy moved from the country to the big city with her family in the 50's she was beautiful an funny and could absolutely be a force of nature when she got angry, I remember when I was a boy and young teenager we'd spend time with My grand parents Uncle's Aunt's an cousins on the holidays popping fireworks, We'd all get in a circle and hold hands put a whistle chaser on the ground and light it and all most every time it would chase Aunt Maudie, fun time's, My mother and her were very close ,
They both cared for their mother up until grandma's death at Aunt Maudie's home, Aunt Maudie even took care of my mother Katy for a short time but my mom wanted to stay in her own home and then my niece Erin took care of her till my mother's death, She always helped out anyone who needed it.
