Farewell, Aunt Neva: Tribute and Poems

Adorable Aunt Neva

It is with a sad heart that we bid an earthly farewell to aunt Neva. She is my aunt through marriage but she treated me as though I was her own daughter. She was brilliant, hospitable, funny and kind and will be missed by all who knew her.

Our hearts ache for your passing

You've left us too soon

 As you can see, Neva was an adorable child and loved by her family.

Her beautiful smile is the attention getter in the family photo above. Her beautiful heart blessed her family with great love.

Although as time passed, family gatherings became rarer, they were always precious. I am very thankful for the time I got to spend with her and hope to see her in heaven one day. May God comfort and bless all those mourning aunt Neva and may He bless you, too.
