Aunt Ida...not just a character in your life's story; she would make a great character in a novel. :-)
Interestingly, Dotty's Godfather, Al Zimmer resided with his sister Ida (I always loved her name, Ida Zimmer) all their lives. I wish I knew their story; all I recall is that Ida made us tuna sandwiches and she made them with cottage cheese...probably to stretch the servings. Ah!! Ida and Al Zimmer and Ida Zahner.... good memories.
Wonderful! I remember Aunt Ida's odiferous presence and any family gathering without was simply not complete. She was always nice to me and incredibly mysterious.
Another well documented adventure Joe. But you forgot to mention that Aunt Ida (along with all her sisters) made us look tall, even though we are not.

Wow, that is so cool Joe I never knew, and glad I subscribed your such a great storyteller!
And please share with friends.
Peter thanks so much for that. It means a lot to me.
