Hi Sunny,
I was so excited to see your name on the Internet. Your Aunt Mary told me you were there. I just sent an email to WIKI. It was meant for you.
I love being able to keep in touch with you this way. Everyone in Houston is doing great. Your dad is doing great. He is moving to Floresville sometime this year. We'll keep you posted. I want to continue to read about you at this site so I will visit it often. Write sometimes. Love, your Aunt Shirley
Sonya Childress is amazing!
