CONNIE HIGGINS on AUNT NINA & UNCLE BILL

Aunt Nina and Uncle Bill’s house was always fun to go to. They offered me opportunities that I would not have necessarily had. I went to the movies far more than I would have if not for them. Debbie would call and she and Uncle Bill would come get me. He would take us to wherever we needed to go. It was usually the movies or Emo’s. Aunt Nina always had pink hair tape in her hair. Uncle Bill was always sitting at the kitchen table smoking his Tareytons. He was such a quiet man in one way but you could always sit down and have a conversation with him. Aunt Nina always had the cleanest house. She was always dusting and running the vacuum. I had the opportunity to visit Aunt Nina and Debbie in Texas last year and I can tell you she is still dusting. I saw her humming and dusting. It brought back many, many fond memories.
