My beautiful sister! She was 7 years older than me and was the one who taught me a lot about growing up, fixing up to look pretty and how to mop and wax the floor. And she did check out my wax job afterwards, to see if I skipped any areas.
If I did, she'd make me do it again. Hah!
I loved her with all my heart and expect to see her again in heaven, along with our Ma and the rest of the family.
She loved the Lord with her whole heart.
I always wanted to sing specials in church, like she did and dress up pretty to go to church. She will really be missed. I love her so much!
Her baby sister, Sandy

Loved my Aunt Dolores. I remember when I was a child, she was always so fancy!!!! I always thought I'd like to be fancy like Dolores.
