My Sister



Rebekah Gaye Young Parrish, is my sister and she is the only one left out of 7 girls born to Mom.  She was a twin and her twin passed a few hours after birth.  I often wonder who really lived, since they were identical twins and may have been given the wrong ID bracelet.  Either way we are all we have and that's better than not having anyone.

Trunk

I can remember down through the years about how my grandmother and great grandmothers would keep their quilts and blankets in a huge Cedar Trunk  during the summer months.  Most of the time there were extras inside so that they could be used when company would come to visit.  I've watched as those two ladies would sit around quilting frames making quilts for the winter months cold.
