Time. I thought we'd have more of it. I was really planning on visiting you this summer while I was going to be in Washington for a little vacation. Not knowing your time was coming to an end. I wish I had more time to know more about the beautiful woman that you were. I do have one great memory though and this is how I will always remember you.
You were selfless and gave so easily when it came to family. Months before my wedding, I found a dress for the occasion but with the job I had at the time and not wanting to put more pressure on my parents who were already giving so much, I decided to reach out to my bridesmaids that I needed help paying for my dress. Almost immediately following that message, Pale reached out and said to not worry about it and that YOU Aunty had it covered. You gave without hesitation. You gave when I needed it the most and was too afraid to ask but stepped out and took the risk anyway. Of course your sister (my mom, the baby of the family) was upset at me for asking but I really appreaciated what you did for me at that time. I can only imagine how much you gave selflessly to anyone who was in need and reached out. That part of your character will always be remembered and will continue to live on through the lives you have touched by this not so easy task. I will always remember you this way, selfless.
Rest in peace my beautiful aunty. I love you so much!
