My deepest sympathies to you all during this time. I always remember how sweet and kind Aunt Corinne was. She attended my high school graduation in 1986 with my grandmother Iris who loved her dearly. The first time I saw MTV was at her house in Stoneville! What a thrill that was (way back in the early 80's). When my son, Alex was born, she gave him a beautiful quilt that became his favorite blanket. Even though it is tattered and faded, he still keeps it on his bed (even at 15!). Whenever I see it, I always think of Aunt Corinne's sweet nature. Thinking of you all. God Bless, Jennifer Comer Abuaita
