I recall Aunt Lee as being constantly enthusiastic about family. Few things made her as happy as being with family, eating together, laughing, or even bickering about subjects about which there was some simple disagreement. She was unceasingly honest about what she thought, yet she cared very much about not breaking ties with others. She and Uncle Andy stuck together no matter what and there was a very deep bond between them. I believe she liked seeing others happy and she liked to laugh. I spoke to her a few times during the past year and there was always an eagerness to connect which I enjoyed.
I believe this gift was passed on to her son, Sam, in a significant way. Sam has always kept ties with relatives and has expressed an interest and a kindness toward them. He recalls things about our childhood that I had long forgotten, and that is a gift. I'm glad the Zappas family is a part of our larger family of relatives.
