Today my great aunt Rosie passed away. She hasn't been doing well for quite some time, so it wasn't a shock, but it is still difficult, as any death in the family is. She was a remarkable woman, she was Japanese and she moved to America just when she married my uncle. My uncle met her when he was in the Navy. I learned a lot about Japan from her, how to make "real" fried rice. I will miss her, and am sad that we won't be able to make it home for the funeral.
My aunt Rosie is the one in the middle of the picture. The ones on the sides are her two daughters, Ruby and Rika.
