She was an only child who had no children. As the young second wife of my uncle, she was not appreciated by his children. However, I enjoyed her quirky energy. She was a philosopher, writer, searcher and guide. She had a goal to walk around the United States, meeting and walking and talking with ordinary people along the way. About halfway through the journey, she received the diagnosis. Her last few months became a fight for her life. <br><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/genealogy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>genealogy</span></a></p>
