Update 03-29-14 My housing situation has just become very critical!!! My stepbrother, who serves as my late aunt's POA, has just announced that this home is now being sold!!! Since the lease was in my aunt's name, there's really nothing that can be done to stop it. We have until June 01 2014 to find new digs.

None of us have sufficient incomes or credit scores to get a new mortgage or even rent an apartment.

We're going to look for & hire an attorney this coming Monday (03-31-14) to try and get things straightened out, but there are no guarantees here.

My aunt Voni has become worm food. :-(

Update 03-16-14
My aunt Voni quietly passed away Thursday morning (03-13-14) ; I went into her room to give her some meds at approx. 9:10am PDT and noted that she had no respiration or palpable pulse, and the skin on her face felt unusually cool to the touch. I attached an automatic blood pressure cuff "just to be sure it's Westinghouse" (as my deceased best friend used to say) and was not able to obtain a reading of any type. I quickly got on the blower with my mother and had her come right away.

Guess I'll be coding another memorial web page within the next week or so.
I really hate having to do that; but doing just that ensures that memories of her will live imperpetuity {yeah, I'm sure I spelled that one correctly!}
