Aunt Shirley Wright was my mom's sister. After losing my mom six yrs. ago, I enjoyed going to visit her and bringing her things as I can't do that for my mom anymore. Now, the Lord will give me someone else to go see. When I was growing up, I would go stay with Aunt Shirl n Uncle Bob and they were always good to me. Ty for the wonderful memories.
