My Dear Aunt

My Aunt Joyce died last Friday in Ottawa, to the dismay of all the family. She was a lovely woman who really knew how to laugh. I will remember her always for her enthusiasm about everything, her good wishes and good humour about life, no matter what it served up.
Claire reports from OZ that she has moved to new digs with her three friends and hopes to stay put until the end of her stay there. She is doing more at the zoo now. As a visible part of the public bird show, she gets to catch the barking owl (an owl native to Australia). She's still loving it, especially the weather.
