Aunt Quote by Susan C. Young
““Lenee's aunt is a master conversationalist who can enter a party of strangers and leave with a handful of new best friends. When she walks into a room, she is on a mission to learn everyone else’s story. Her focus is so completely dedicated to hearing about others that her own story is irrelevant to the conversation. It feeds her feelings of joy to get to know others and hear their stories. Try it!””
