Published in The Indianapolis Star from Dec. 28 to Dec. 29, 2020.∼Aunt Toots was my Mama's sister and one of my favorite aunts. After we moved from Indiana to Georgia we would drive back "home" every Christmas and summer and stay at Aunt Toots and Uncle Bill's home along with our first cousins Barbie, Karen and Steve. Their house was crowded but it wouldn't have been Christmas without spending it at their home.
My Aunt stayed with our family before she married Uncle Bill. My Mom used to say Toots had her choice of suitors, a few quite wealthy, but when she found Uncle Bill that was all she wrote. My little sister Candy was flower girl in her wedding.
She and Uncle Bill were always inseparable. They had three children, two girls and one boy. She as well as the rest of my Mama's siblings and father, Roy Bucy, loved to play cards. Whenever the family got together, what ended up as more than 25 grandchildren tore through the house playing all kinds of games while the parents sat at the kitchen table eating all kinds of snacks and play one hand after another.
Aunt Toots loved her family and came to every one of our weddings in Georgia and other cousins whose families had moved out of Indy. Aunt Toots was one of 9 siblings who lived to adulthood. Brother Roy William died at 13 and two sisters were still born. She was a young grandmother and now a great grandmother. She was often plagued with health problems, suffering a long-time, painful battle with shingles. She had a great laugh, didn't suffer fools lightly and family was the most important to her.
