Not sure what to say?





Aunt Roxie, so many fond memories, hunting season, Thanksgiving, summers, the creek, the Gavins store, riding on the tail gate. Go ping down the road, sugar cane, watermelon, the chicken farm, Uncle Brad and Aunt Maybelle. All the times that is cousins would get Hollard at too tell us supper was ready. The baths with the ivory soap and your hair being shinny from the spring water. The wood cooking stove. The #9 wash tub and one kettle of water for 4 of us kids. Lots of love, happiness, good times and sad. Aunt Roxie was one of a kind. Very loved and looked up too. Rest In Peace my Dear. You are forever loved.
