Posted on: Wednesday, March 8, 2023We will forever miss Aunt Velma, we loved her so much. Aunt Velma is who I turned to if I didn’t know what kind of fish I caught. She was a hard working, hard fishing, happy go lucky woman who seemed to get along with everyone. I’m sure she is happy to be back with Uncle Sim and her girls but she will be missed.
