Too Young

My dear aunt T, who found out she had inflamatory breast cancer in September of 2007, has died. She passed around 2:30 this morning at her parents house. She just turned 45 last month. Way too young.
It was just in 2007, not too long before she found out about the cancer, that we had really gotten back in touch again. It was actually the first time I'd had any contact info for her on my own, as an adult. I'm so glad that we were able to make it out to visit her this last March. It means a lot to me to have had that time.
I'm waiting to hear from my dad & grandparents as to funeral plans. I may be making a quick trip to WA. I guess she will be cremated and they might possibly have a small service soon, I think more for closure for her parents, but are planning a larger "life celebration" in the spring. I'll definately be going out for that.
She will be dearly missed.
