During the height of the Trudeau years, Aunt Al started proclaiming the veracity of a story with it’s True Doh’. That’s one of the many things that have come flooding back over the past few days. Another is the time we spend picking Dandelion heads, so Aunt Al and Uncle Jim could make Dandelion Wine. Although I have never tasted said wine, I am given to understand it was never of VQA quality Thank you Aunt Al for your humour, your dedication to family and for letting me know that we were loved. Rest in peace. Cathy
