Let's see. I had eight great aunts, plus one who was my grandma. Can I remember each of their names? There were June, Opal, and Daisy. Then came Ida, Lena, Maude, Cora, and Ruby. They were all just great characters. And one great uncle as well. His name was Joe, and he was electrocuted and died at a very young age. I've forgotten one. Hmm.

I wouldn't be able to remember everyone either.

@celticeagle It will come to you when you least expect. That is what happens to me quite a lot when I can't remember something.

All of my "great" relatives would be in Italy. I only knew my grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.

Most of those are quite old-fashioned names. My mother's name was Lena.

Our Lena was a midwife and had some hair-raising stories to tell. She was a very interesting person. Even did some time in prison.
