I can still remember walking down Butler Street with Aunt Dorothy and her buying me a banana spilt.
Also, staying over at Aunt Dorothy's and Uncle Bill's house and going to the drive-in movie. We saw Marilyn Monroe in "River of No Return" and "Fireman Save My Child" with Spike Jones.
Aunt Dorothy was a lot of fun and a great aunt. I will always love her.
