I always enjoyed my time visiting with my Tante Irmy! She was a major support to my dad and our whole family when my mom was unwell. Her support made what was a traumatic event less traumatizing and I am deeply indebted to her for that.
She was a bridge between me and her mom (Oma Friesen), always sitting with us when I came to visit. I remember the annual family reunions held for Oma's birthday at her home and can only now as an adult begin to appreciate the energy this took.
I will miss her and her constant words of encouragement!
May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest!
