Aaron, you are not going to believe this year. It started off like a volcano. I haven't been able to talk about it, but I know I have to let you know. On Thanksgiving, they had dinner at the church. Some of the family contracted COVID. Shirleen, Mike, Madear, Sister, Percy, and I don't even know who else, but Madear ended up in the hospital. Sister had to go to the hospital and Shirleen. At this point it seemed like Madear was probably worse because of her age. But thank God she made it out and Sister. Shirleen went home, but never seemed to get better. By now it's after Christmas. Tasha had been home and came back. Shirleen ended up back in the hospital. To cut this story short, do you know Shirleen got worse and worse and on January 8th, she passed away. I am still in total shock. Tasha, Oowie, ShuShu took it so hard. Hick is holding his own. I go and check on Madear more now. She doing pretty good. Apple is trying to make it as well. Mike too. It is just unbelievable. Then in March, our cousin Denise died from COVID. She coded 5 times. So it has been one hectic year so far. Sorry I haven't been to visit you since Christmas, but I didn't know all of this until after Christmas. I thought everyone was home and doing fine. You be sweet. Your brother's birthday is Wednesday. Oh and he has had 2 heart surgeries this year so you look out for us all down here. You are definitely in a better place. You wouldn't want to come back here. I love you, Momma loves you so much
