I have been blessed with knowing an incredible family of ladies for almost 30+ years. It's hard to imagine that it's been that long but it really has. We moved to Leland in 1978 and lived on Third Street right behind Joe Turner Hardware. I think Ms. Sue and the girls moved in after we did. That began our family friendship with the Fullertons. As my Mama has said.. It didn't matter whose house all of us were in at the time but we were gonna clean both if we wanted to go somewhere. We lived beside each other two different times in our lives and each time added more memories. My fondest memories were coming home from Lillo's swimming pool and Miss Sue would have cooked for us. Her Apple cake was the BOMB! It's so hard to see how devastating Alzheimer's can be on a wonderful woman. My Mama was 2nd Mama to Jerrita, Anna, Brandy, and Michelle and Miss Sue was that way with me and JoBeth too. I pray that we have many more get togethers and share those memories with each other. I have problems remembering a good deal of stuff from my later teen years from the chemo and radiation. I guess you combine the lupus/fibro "Fog" and I need JoBeth sitting there nudging me along. Thank you God for blessing me with the friendships of these incredible women!
I love you all so much!!!!
