RIP Sister #1

My dearest niece, Sherrie is her daughter. Sherrie is my muralling partner, & responsible for the shots you see on GLaM of me taking pics of graf.

RIP Sister #2

This image, taken outside a beauty parlor, is the perfect representation of Jacquie. May your afterlife be as beautiful, dear sister.
