My Special Special Angel
My Aunt Jeanette


I love all of my family very much and each of them is special in their own way and special for a different reason.

They are all special for not only who they are, but also for what they did for me when I was a child and what it means to me now. Some are special just because I now know not only what they did for me when I was young but why and that makes them very special.

My Aunt Jeanette was very very special. I will try to share with you why she is one of my "My Special Angels"

As a young child, I was not the same person as I am now. I was destructive, not to caring, self-centered and a little on the wild side.

I was known for destroying the property of my cousins (especially their toys at Christmas), being mean and sometimes cruel. My Aunt Jeanette always had a great explanation for my behaviors. She would always defend me.

My aunt had the kindness, gentliest heart and soul you would ever meet. She would always ensure that whatever the other children (all my cousins) got, my sister and I got the same.

My grandmother would buy for one of us and my aunt the other which was usually me.

As time passed, and we aged, we started referring to each other as "favorites". I would call her "My favorite Aunt" and she would always whisper "You were always my favorite neice".


She had two wonderful sons (Keith and Michael), who have gone on and married wonderful women. I know she was very very proud of them and the wonderful choices for partners they made. She sure loved her grandchildren.

Aunt Jeanette had a wonderful husband, my Uncle Don, who took care of her as she aged.
She had many problems, but that never stopped her from attending all family functions, and being the star.

The smokers (and both of us are members) would have to smoke downstairs, but that didn't bother us.
We smokers enjoyed the relaxation of smoking and chatting while the others were upstairs.

I was in P.E.I. when I got the news of her death. God, I wanted to come home right away and make sure that she was okay. I couldn't believe that she had passed on.

I felt the huge burden of guilt that I was away when she went to heaven. I also never got to say good bye to her.
I know she knew I loved her, and I know she loved me, but I would have loved to have the chance to say "Good Bye" and to tell her that I loved her.

My Uncle sent out the Thank You Cards and he was wonderful enough to put in it, "She always said you were her favorite". Thank you, Uncle Don for making that wonderful caring jesture.

I wasn't able to say goodbye to my grandmother or to tell her that I loved her. I was able to do that with my father, so his passing was a little easier on me that I thought it would be. You can visit my special dedication to him by clicking here. My Dad

Always make sure that you tell your loved ones that you love them. Tell them often, and tell them how you feel about them while they are still here. The greatest tradegy is to wait to tell them and then find out it's too late. I know. I missed telling my grandmothers that I cared and loved them both dearly. I'm sure that they knew it, but that isn't good enough for me now. Now I really wish I had told them how very much I loved them and how important they were in my life.

So, Aunt Jeanette, here is my goodbye and a letter telling you just how much you meant to me.

Dear Aunt Jeanette:

As you sit in Heaven, watching down over me, I want you to know that that I loved you very very much and still think of you often today. Doing this site and putting this letter here is my Goodbye to you.

I'm sorry that I didn't get to say "Goodbye" to you, but please know that you are in my heart all the time.

Aunt Jeanette, I know you can see this and I want you to know that I appreciate all that you did for me and all that you meant to me.

You had me babysit Michael and Keith one summer so that I could make some money. I spent it all on goldfish that eventually died but your thoughtfulness was not unnoticed.

You were always there for me whenever I needed it and sometimes when I didn't think I needed it but I did anyway.

Thank you for loving me. I want you to know that I love you and I miss you. I think of you often but it's harder around the holidays because you were such a big part of my holiday ever since I could remember.

I know you have a lot to do with watching over Uncle Don, Michael, Keith and their families...but please try to watch over me as well.

So wait by the gate for me. When my turn comes, I want you there to greet me. I love you.

I love you Aunt Jeanette.
All my love,
Your Neice,
