Mean Aunt Judy

My "Mean Aunt Judy" passed away yesterday. While we are all sad to see this happen, it gave me the opportunity to reflect on my memories of her. Since I am 50, the really young stuff is completely gone, and the more recent gets fuzzier every day. Besides chatting with her on the phone occasionally, there are two things that stick in my mind. One was the time I was in Atlanta on business. I went out to eat with her and Doug at a place I think was called the Savoy. They knew everyone there and it apparently was a dance club they frequented. We had a blast. The other times I remember were when all of the Bubb sisters would get together at Callaway for a weekend retreat. Since I would usually ride Mom up there to drop her off, I had time to visit. I don't know how many people have aunts that you can hang out with and drink beer, but if you don't, you're missing out on the fun. We miss you, Mean Aunt Judy, and will always love you.
