Thursday was a very sad day for us. Aunt Tonn (LaVonne, to most, Aunt Tonn, to us kids) passed away unexpectedly. It was a shock to all of us and we all miss her very much. My mom and her brothers, Uncle Tom and Uncle Dave, responded with what is familiar to all of us -- being together as a family and sorting through the sadness and loss together. Our family is strong and our bond seems to grow even stronger when life turns upside down. My aunt was kind and had a sweetness about her that you knew was genuine the minute you met her. Her childlike demeanor was refreshing. She touched all of our hearts and we know that she is now living a wonderful life up in heaven - reunited with Myron and Grandma and Grandpa Keeney. She loved angels, and her house was full of the many that she had collected over the years. As I told my girls......"the angels came down and took her wonderful, kind, heart up to heaven to be with Jesus". Knowing that makes it easier to accept....but she will be missed everyday by all of us. We love you, Aunt Tonn!

I'm sorry for your loss Pam... It's nice that you could be with your family during this time though.
Pam, I realized you might not know this is Anne Diaz. ;)
