May 31, 2022 at 6:07 pmDear Robin, I’m so sorry for the loss of your father. I’ve told you how I loved spending time at Aunt Lucille’s and Uncle Alvin’s when I was young. Brian was always so nice to me! your grandma probably made sure of that!! Lol
He would walk me to the neighborhood store for candy and play for a while at home. He was a teenager and that was probably the last thing he wanted to do. Hugs to all of you!
