EDITED STORYI DID NOT QUITE TELL THE STORY HOW IT HAPPENED. I DID CALL TO TALKED TO DEBBIE AND VALERIE DID ANSWER THE PHONE. WHAT I TOLD HER WAS I HAD A NEW PHONE THAT JUST CAME OUT WITH A CAMERA ON IT AND I COULD SEE HER (OR THE PERSON I WAS TALKING TO). THAT’S WHEN VALERIE ASK ME WHAT DID SHE HAVE ON. I JUST TOOK A WILD GUESS AND SAID SHE WAS WEARING A TEE SHIRT AND PANTIES. AND THEN SHE SAID LISSSSAAAA. SHE THEN WENT RUNNING OFF TO TELL HER SISTER’S!! THEN I FINALLY TOLD HER I WAS KIDDING HER AND TOOK A WILD GUESS AT WHAT SHE WAS WEARING.
A telephone conversation I had with ValerieOne day when we were children I called Debbie and Valerie answered the phone. We got to talking and I started teasing her saying there is a new phone out that has a camera on it. She said “no way” Lisa. She said Lisa, tell me what I have on. I said Valerie you have on a tee shirt and a pair of panties!! She said Lisssssaaaaaa how did you know that!!!
Rita and ZeeRita will be missed by me. I loved her and she sure did love everyone. I can remember a time when we, Jeffery, Eric, Rita and I went to Hilton Head and it got dark and the girls had to pee real bad while we were on the beach. She an I copped a quat in some bushes only to be seen by some people behind us siting on their patio. It was so funny and I will never forget her. She was a top notch lady and I loved her. God Bless you Rita. May the God you worship and loved so much take care of you. Zee
