Tanta Gertrude who was my Great Aunt "Gert" as we called her was a real card!!!!! She always used to hit me up with a knock knock joke or something simple and/or stupid,I thought. One day she asked me how many sides are there to the cross. I just blurted out "4". She said that I was right. God at the top, the unknown at the bottom, Jesus on one side, and the Holy Ghost on the other side. I asked "the unknown at the bottom???". She said to me that the unknown is the one that is the support, the one who is in the earth that supports even the part in the sky. I've never seen her more serious just at that moment. Then she laughed with that old Dutch cackle that we all knew and then she proclaimed" Only a woman could hold all of that up!!!!"
