I always looked forward to Aunt Charlotte and Uncle Gene Ray’s visits. I absolutely adored her sweet southern accent and her laugh. I never wanted them to go home. I would hug her and hang on . Her hugs are like heaven. Just filled your heart up. I know that my Daddy is in heaven excited to see his sweet sister.
