There are so many wonderful memories of Tootie that I will always hold close to heart. She was the loving quirky aunt that made life fun. She had such a great sense of humor that always produced a smile & laugh from those around her. It was also this quality that provoked others to play good natured tricks on her (of which her nephew Brad was often the culprit)! Life was never dull with Tootie around & I will miss her dearly. My love, hugs, thoughts & prayers are with her family and friends today & many days beyond. May you rest in peace Aunt Toot…& place nice with the other angels surrounding you!
