Aunt Carrie was a unique personality, always quick with a joke and one of the best ever at delivering the punchline. When Aunt Carrie would tell a story you immediately became engrossed into the story always knowing she was going to lead you to a great ending. There are so many great things I could say about my Aunt Carrie but there would never be enough space or time to list them all.
Below is the poem that was written by my brother and read at Aunt Carrie's funeral, there is no better way to describe my Aunt.
