"Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh." -George Bernard Shaw

My little sister passed away at the beginning of this month and she never lost her sense of humor. She would want to be remembered for that, and I did these cartoons in her memory from her last few days.

Once when I had been sitting with her for quite a while, I found I needed to use the toilet:

Another time, we were talking about an estranged family member:

Then, she made her last humorous statement the day before she passed away.

Here's to you, little sister! You could always make me laugh!
