Just like the old days alive with sound

My very first stories I heard of home...was of Aunt Mag.

When I think of the Grougha, my first thought is of the one who was the heart of it for so many years. When I was young it was time her I would stay with, and even years later she was always the first person I would see.

This year will be different. As I certainly look forward to coming home, I know she won't be in that chair to greet me when I walk through that door...

But I do know her spirit will continue to shine there...and that all those years of memories are enshrined in my heart...

You left a wonderful legacy Aunt Mag...and you continue to hold a very special place in hearts of many...

Christmas...so different this year...I remember years ago as children we'd await the post from home...Aunt Mag always sent a small parcel...In it would be slippers for mom...socks for us boys. Chocolates. ..a bag of Irish tea...no matter what was in the parcel I know we were always excited when it came. .
Then on Christmas morning we'd begin to ring home to thank Aunt Mag...now these were days before cell phones so many a time when we dial we would get ' we're sorry but all circuits to that country are busy right now.. please try your call later on'...
And try we did until sucess!
And while those days are a lifetime ago...they are still memories I treasure dearly..and keep Aunt Mag ever so alive in my heart...

Anyone else here with special Christmas memories you would like to share?
