My Relationship with Aunt Pat & Dad

Brittany Wilson 1988 (Milwaukee, WI)



Aunt Pat: A few years ago, Aunt Pat & I decided that we would have a “sister-aunt/sister-niece” relationship. We would always be in competition with styling our hair. She’ll either take her braids down as i braid my hair or I’ll take my braids down as she braids hers. That was so much fun & I’m gonna miss it.

Dad: We’re just a couple of knuckleheads who mutually got on each other’s nerves all the time. He’s the reason I always listen to music wherever I go (preferably gangster rap because it reminds me of him). He drove me to my high school graduation & he took me to my 1st live wrestling event 15 years ago. I treated him to his birthday twice & I’ll miss doing that.
