Those in attendance were her husband, Thomas Wilson, her aunt, Delie Shepard and her nephew, Leslie Ross. Lunch on her actual birthday January 12th was at Ichaban in Pearl. She then caught a flight and met her two daughters from Houston in Chicago. Further celebrations were that night with her dad, Roosevelt Cornelius, Marvin Richmond and other cousins.
Saturday was a day at home trying to stay warm. It was very cold in Chicago. Sunday, she enjoyed the celebration of Debra Cornelius retirement and birthday. Locord was the special guest. Monday was spent on traveling home.
