I haven't confirmed that the Erna E. Reichmann in this obituary is the Erna Reichman whom we knew and loved as Aunt Erna, but I think she must be.

The year 1938 seems right: after World War I and before Glady hired Aunt Erna to nurse Daddy Green around 1950.

And the May date seems right.  I vaguely remembering asking my mother about Aunt Erna's birthday.  There was a big birthday party every year in July for Glady, so why wasn't there a birthday party for Aunt Erna?  My mother said that her birthday was in May, but they didn't celebrate it because her husband died on her birthday.  I'm not sure that he died exactly on her birthday, but it was close enough.

I hadn't known that Aunt Erna's husband had at least six siblings.  I never heard about any of them, but I daresay they were all dead by the time I was growing up in the 1960s.
