My sister Anna Maria, passed away this afternoon in St Giles Hospice near Lichfield. She was 72. She has been having cancer treatment for almost a year. It came as a shock to me as I didn't find out about it until earlier this year. She stopped communicating with me for three and a half years. Thankfully we were able to put our past differences behind us over the last few months.
This is why I keep saying, don't be cruel, don't be hateful, don't be a bully, There is nothing to be gained by taking your anger with you to the grave. My sister badly misjudged the situation. I hope she has found peace.
Thank you for your comments.
Have a good weekend. ilona

Dear Ilona you have my condolences . Sorry to hear about your sister. Your sister looked so cute in the photo. I was wondering why it took you so long for your You tube stories. I thought it was from the heat wave . You will get back to normal. God bless you. 7-13-26
