I have an aunt who has been truly an angel to me!  We've never been particularly close.  After my Grandmother died when I was around 6 years old no one really bothered to be close.  I mean we aren't estranged, just you know... not as close as family should be I guess.  but in the past couple of years she has really put a lot of effort into keeping in touch.  she sends money and gifts for EVERYTHING!  like... Happy St. Patrick's Day!  Here's some money!  This was a gonna be a tight week for me financially. But, she just called and said "Hey check your mailbox.  There's money in there for you.  I figured you might need some."

I gotta do something nice for her!
