goodbye dear aunt Loie

My Moms best friend for the past 88 years lost her cancer battle today. Our cousin group just learned of her illness yesterday. She had extensive cancer throughout her body.  Pancreatic, liver, stomach and brain were all involved. I visited mom today but didn’t share the diagnosis as I guess I thought Loie would have more time. Kyle is going to tell her tomorrow and we are all going to let her know through phone calls to check in and support.
