Tribute to Auntie Chizo
Although I wish I was able to spend more time with her, Auntie Chizo reminds me of the importance of being true to yourself. I am grateful to have witnessed her passion for animals, family and the life she led so bravely. Her memory lives vibrantly within my heart, and although I am saddened by her passing , I am happy that she is reunited with grandma and grandpa. Her soul will continue to inspire me for the rest of my life. ❤
