I'll never forget the car rides to Leesburg VA & the silly
songs she taught us like My Aunt Fanny & Little Rabbit Foo Foo. I had fun teaching them to my son when he was little.
My sympathy to my cousins & their families as well as my aunts & uncles. Love you...

Thinking of you in your time
of sorrow. Bless you and your family. So sorry for your loss. What a wonderful mom you have been blessed to have. _______________
Aunt Toots, My favorite Aunt!! You reminded
me so much of my own grandmother! You loved me unconditionally! You never gave up on me, I could always count on you to lend
me your ear. I'll miss the "snackees" you gave us for picking you up for the family dinners. Most of all we
will miss you!! I don't want to cry as I know you will no long feel pain, have a hard time walking and you'll breath
so much easier on your own. And I know you were tired and ready to rest!! You were ready to go "home". I didn't
want to be selfish, to have you stay any longer, but I will truly miss you!! May the heavens keep you safe, and let your wings
soar softly!!! We love you, Aunt Toots, rest now, as you'll be watching over us all, our guardian angel!!!
All
our love always, Sam, Nidie, Samantha, Brandon, and Kristen (Calaman) Juanita Calaman
