I’m clearing my aunt’s house after she passed away over the Christmas break. I’ve come across a lot of stuff I’d have thought would hit me hard, and hasn’t… But this made me cry because of the simple joy this clearly gave her.
She was never one for modern technology, although I suspect she wished she was, and spent most of the last 20 years referring to “Googlies” rather than Google (whether this was on purpose because it made her laugh, I don’t know), but she truly found joy in the simple things that tickled her brain… So if anyone from the Google Doodle team decides to wrap it up, think of Auntie Pat, and give it another try, please.
