That's all the better I could say her name when she used to babysit me when I was a young child. Many good memories over the years. Aunt Byrdine and Aunt Loretta used to sing together at Klawonn family holiday gatherings. They would sing songs that glorified their Savior Jesus Christ. Somehow it got to be a tradition between my dad and Aunt Byrdine, that he would buy her a jar of olives on her birthday two days after Christmas. She would always kind of give a little laugh as if embarrassed. I guess I could go on forever, but I'll just say thank you, Aunt Byrdine for nothing but the best of memories. This part is from Dora...I thought Aunt Byrdine was so kind, I always felt a sense of peace when I was around her. She was a wonderful example of a Godly wife and mother. I remember Howard and her taking evening walks together and holding hands,they seemed to love each other so much. It made me want to have a marriage like that. She affected my life by letting Christ shine in her more that she will ever know! To her family we would like to say along with Paul in 1Thessalonians 4: 13-18,I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them who are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also will God bring with him. v.17 Then we who are alive shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the LORD in the air; and so shall we ever be with the Lord. AMEN! & AMEN
