the journey is over..

Aunty's journey through life is over. Her spirit was willing to continue on but her body was not able to. With Uncle, my hubby and me by her side she breathed her last this afternoon. What a life that lady had lived. She was an anthropologist having dedicated a large part of life studying the farming methods of papua new guinea and having been inducted into the tribe she lived with. She was also a professor at a university in New Zealand. I am really going to miss her, she was opinionated but had agenerous heart always giving and giving (whether you wanted it or not!) and she could also curse more than any sailor I know... never left the house without lipstick on, her Red Door perfume, her purple knitted purse and her money securely kept in various ziplock sandwich bags.
Gods speed to you Aunty..

Oh Nanjowe, I am so sorry hon. I know it was the right time for Aunti, but it doesnt lesson the pain for those left behind. What an amazing woman she was. She touched my heart and I didnt even "know" her.
You will be in my thoughts,
((hugs)),
