Aunt Sue
Aunt Sue held a uniquely special place in my heart and my life. And I'm certain that isn't exclusive to just me.
I am fortunate to have many aunts and uncles...all of which made me feel special and important. Not only did Aunt Sue exemplify this, she often took it to another level. She was my Aunt, but she was also my God Mother and treated me like I was one of her own.
I only have the fondest memories of her. I can't recount them all here (you don't have the time) but there are several I will carry with me forever...
My favorite cooks of all time are my Dad (#1), his parents and his sisters. Heck, the whole damn family knows how to make anything taste good. Give them a knife and a pot and you're in for a treat. Aunt Sue was no different. I always enjoyed her meals. From the canned asparagus in her salads, to shrimp cooked to perfection, the best Oreo Shakes ever and, my all-time favorite, her green bean and artichoke casserole. I don't believe she ever prepared anything I didn't just love. I was a skinny little nothing of a kid but I have a feeling I would've been built like a linebacker if I lived in their home. In the past 20 yrs, there hasn't been a Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner when I haven't made that green bean casserole. In fact, I retell how I got the recipe every time (I bet my two boys are tired of that by now...lol). I've passed that recipe on to countless friends who always rave about how delicious it is. I think of her each time I make it and I'm certain that will never change.
Speaking of food, when I was attending LSU, I would hang out at their home on the weekends. Courtney and I would inevitably come home at the wee hours of night. And you know who was always up to greet us? Yep, Aunt Sue. Heck, I have no idea if she ever slept...haha. But she wasn't waiting to scold us for coming in late, she was there to make sure we were ok and, of course, make sure we were fed. Those late night snacks and meals always hit the spot.
Aunt Sue and Uncle Dickie, my God Parents, would often send me a special gift for my birthday. It was always one of my favorite gifts to open because it was typically something no one else would get me. From authentic fitted baseball caps from some of my favorite teams, to clothing from brands we couldn't afford, to cassette tapes of some of my favorite songs...I always looked forward to those gifts with great anticipation. They were always thoughtful and perfect.
And how could I forget her asking Uncle Dickie, "can you unlock the milk truck, so he can get some ice cream?!?" Yes, the infamous milk truck. Unlimited dairy pleasures!! Chocolate milk wishes and ice cream dreams!
I could go on and on but again, YOU don't have the time.
I, like so many others, will cherish my memories of her and be ever grateful that God put her in our lives for a reason. She was a blessing to me in so many ways...and it hurts me to think she probably had no idea what she meant to me. But I'm strong in Faith and I have no doubt she is hearing this now...looking down, smiling on us all and finally getting that rest she so deserves.
My heart and prayers go out to all her friends and family that are saddened by her loss. I pray you find joy in your memory of her...I know I will.
God Speed and God Bless, until I see you again. 🙏🏻
