I had a great aunt that was Mother Superior of some North Dakota convent.

She visited when I was small. Dad took her to Las Vegas (early 50's) Apparently caused quite a stir having a nun in full regalia walking through the casinos.

My dad is said to have surveyed the scene and asked my great aunt:

"See sister, this is the wages of sin." And was instantly told to shut up by his aunt.

Was she a "great aunt" (really nice, sweet sister of your mother or of your father), or a "great-aunt" (sister of one of your grandmothers or of one of your grandfathers)?

Regards,
