Today’s Flashback Friday is a salute to my wonderful Aunt Rosella Frohman who passed away on July 21, 2016 at age 94. She was an amazing woman who traveled the world. She made an around-the-world trip in 1966 and traveled extensively over the years. I was lucky enough to accompany her on a trip to Alaska for a land and air tour with Princess Cruises. Incredible experience! So today I’m celebrating a lady who was kind, loving, and adventurous! Love you, Aunt Rosella!

But the article kept getting longer and longer and became a trip down memory lane since 1972. So I posted it in the Our Travels section of the website.
