Well, Aunt Wanza, you sure had a good run of it kid. Fredricktown, Mt. Vernon and Lima, Ohio. 20 some years on the Island. I saw Aunt Wanza a couple of weeks ago while she was shopping at Publix. I couldn't help but notice how good she looked. I went up to her and told her she looked great, beautiful. She looked at me as if the punch line was about to come and then she said, ' I just got back from the hair dresser !' head tipped to the side with her hand on her new 'do'.I don't know what it was, but she really did look radiant. Uncle Jake! I'm thinkin of ya buddy and we are liftin up prayers for ya. I love you Uncle Jake. We love all of you guys. Let me know if there's anything I/we can do. BLESSINGS ON YOU ALL.
