Sad Times
My wife's aunt died Saturday of COVID, she was 91. My wife was closer to her aunt in her adult life than to her mother. She had 6 children, 4 boys and 2 girls. All the kids were born in Indianapolis and three remain there. Her aunt had moved to Hilton Head but moved back to Indianapolis about 4 years ago. She outlived two husbands but her love of family contributed to her death---a family get together for Thanksgiving---exactly what the CDC had warned about.
The good news, her family was able to be with her when she died. Her oldest daughter told my wife that the halls were full of patients
