My father's sister Helen died unexpectedly in the fall of 2021. I'd known my aunt was ill and had made plans to fly from my home in New Orleans to Dallas to visit her, but she was closer to the end than we realized. I had loved Helen and written to her while she was sick, but we hadn't been especially close, so I was surprised and grateful to find that she'd left me $20,000 in her will.
