    To ALL my nieces and nephews, I want you to know how much I loved your mother and how much I’m going to miss her. She held a prominent place in my childhood and influenced me more than she or anyone really knew. Cissy was always ready for an adventure, a trip, or an experience! She chauffered the whole family to every tourist spot in Southern California and Northern Mexico! Her Italian boyfriend introduced us to spaghetti and pizza. Her love of bowling and softball entertained all of us for hours! We were so proud of her and her work where she helped make rocket components for the new Space program! I know you’re catching up with everybody and no longer in pain. In loving memory, your sister, Paula
