    I always enjoyed visiting my Aunt Claire and Uncle Armand and all my cousins. Anne and Jeanne were two of my favorite cousins because we were close in age and I got to see them a little more than the others. I looked up to them and wanted to be like them. I was always proud of my Charette cousins. R.I.P. Dear Anne! I will see you again one day.
