July 15, 1980 Aunt Estelle wrote

Tuesday,  very hot.  101 degrees in Big Stone.   Wendi & I got groceries for me and Aunt Rosalee.  Jennings was in 2 or 3 times.  Elizabeth is better.  Rosemary, Carey and Shanna got in about 7. Edith & Roy stopped. 


Footnote:  Wendi is her granddaughter.  Aunt Rosalee is married to her Uncle Millard, a half-brother to Estelle's Mother.  They live nearby and are not able to drive.  Jennings is her brother who also lives nearby.  Elizabeth is Jennings' wife and she is in the hospital.  Rosemary is her daughter from New Mexico.  Carey is Rosemary's husband and Shanna is their daughter.  Their family or at least some of the family came to Virginia every summer.   I think I remember them saying it took them 3 days to drive across the country.  Sometimes they would fly.   Edith is her sister and Roy is Edith's husband.  They live in Big Stone Gap.
