Additional Comments: My aunt Evelyn, the "matriarch" of our family, died last night. She was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer less than a month ago.
We (husband, my dad & brother) went to visit her a couple weeks ago. I'm glad we got to see her one last time. She actually looked pretty good... except for the "yellowish" skin tone. She was in good spirits & getting around ok. She leaves behind two grown children, two grandchildren & her husband of 50+ years.
Her death wasn't a shock, but we will certainly miss her. She had a keen wit & was just sharp as a tack, right up til the end. She was 84.
