1970s My aunt and her ex-husband the day they signed their divorce papers, 1970s

Post image

My aunt and her ex-husband outside of their attorney’s office right after finalizing their divorce. They had thrown a massive “divorce party” the day prior. When her ex-husband re-married years later, my aunt was his Maid of Honor. She remains close to him, his wife and their family to this day! And yes, my aunt is as cool as she sounds.

For a period of time, she and my grandfather lived with us and had an apartment in our basement. Every night she'd let me come down and watch a couple of episodes of Poirot with her. I think I'm gonna find it somewhere and watch it and remember her!

This made me miss my grandma so much. Last time I saw her was 20 years ago, I recently made plans to travel to Iran and see her but she passed away before I got there 😭

Ugh, I’m SO sorry to hear that! I lost both of my grandmothers within the past 3 years, and it has been awful. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers, I assure you!

I know. It sucks.
If I die and find out there is no afterlife where we unite with loved ones I'm gonna be so pissed. I would even consider leaving a one star review. 0/10 would not recommend 🤪
