She was the best aunt. She called me often and I loved our chats. I remember traveling to Olathe to care for her after she broke her hip. We laughed so hard when the nurse got to her house and told me I had to give her a shot in the belly. I thought how I will do this, but we did it and had fun in the process. I will never forget you Aunt NeNe and you will never be forgotten. Love you forever!

"Grump" Bick wants to say: I remember those cheerleader jackets were expensive.
She never got in any trouble, unlike Wormy (he said that with a smile).
She always visited me every week, and brought me piles of chocolate, and made sure I had everything I needed.
I miss her.
