When my mother Lorraine (Aunt Ida's sister) passed in 2002, I did the obituary for her. It was so hard to do, and I did the unthinkable, and it has bothered me to this day. That thing I did was I missed Aunt Ida. I didn't put her in as mom's sister. I have apologized, and prayed to GOD for fogiveness for this. GOD BLESS. - Posted by: Steven Kallstrom (Nephew) on: Sep 29, 2023
