It's been a loooooooooooooooooooooooong time since I've seen her. I wish that I'd seen her since she grew up and got married (lil' 'Toya?!?!?!).
Growing up she was the annoying little sister in the neighborhood*. Though I never got to see her as a woman, I'm glad we at least had some fun playing basketball.
May the Spirit conduct you toward heaven...
*I was likely the annoying little brother, but she was younger than the rest of us. Figuring out socialization around the big kids can be challenging. Also, I don't think the above conveys just how much I wish I'd gotten to see her grown up. I think the basketball years started around my junior year of HS. She'd grown out of the awkward toddling years. I'm still annoying - ed. 4/7/'26
