Aunt Mary was a wonderful, giving person. She was my Father's sister. When my Mother died in 1977, I was a teenager and one winter night I was alone in the big, old house that I grew up in when an unfamiliar car pulled in the driveway and someone knocked on the door. It was Aunt Mary who said she had come to see how we were doing. I was babysitting my nephew and had a space heater on because we didn't heat the whole house. She told me that the Schambachs had been having a good year and she wanted to share some of their good fortune with us. She handed me a folded check. I tried to give it back but she insisted I take it. When she left I looked and it was $500! We used it for Christmas that year and I have always told her how much that meant to us.
The following Spring she came again, she offered me a place to live with a wonderful family I barey knew but quickly grew to love. In June of 1978, Aunt Mary decided to drive me to Ohio to attend my older brother's graduation from law school. She drove me to Ohio! Believe me - that was a big sacrifice as she always had projects, a house to run, a business and all had to be put on hold because she thought that someone should be there to represent the family at that event. That's how she was - just giving and loving and wanting to do anything she could to help someone.
Those were very happy times for me. What a wonderful loving family, headed by a strong, determined, Matriarch who gave her all to everything she ever did. Her family always came first but she was tireless in all of her endeavours and there were many.
I will think of her every Nov. 18th., when I make and eat blueberry pancakes, see Blue Danube dishes, see lapis lazuli, and when I look a the painting in my bedroom that was one of her early ones that she generously gifted to me.
I thank Aunt Mary for her example, her kindness, love and her generosity. I am remiss in not telling her enough how much she meant to me.
Thank you for allowing me to share in those times. Everyone will miss you Aunt Mary.
Love,
Priscilla
