Life With Weaver...

Since PaPa Hickman worked in the cafe all the time there was little semblence of a structured life for Mother. PaPa did not put his money in banks and Mother recounted the story that it was nothing to play with thousands of dollars (her estimation)on the bed. If she, or Buster wanted anything they just tookthe money they thought they needed and went and "got it" or "did it". She said they never wasted the money and took just enough for whatever it was they were doing. Mother said she "loved Dorothy" and idolized her brother Buster. Of Mose Dumas, Dorothy's husband, she said he was "SO handsome" and she must have had a young girl crush on him". Once time when we were visiting Dorothy, and me being a "picture with big ears", Mother and Dorothy were talking about this very thing! Mother was telling Dorothy about her crush on Mose and his being so handsome and Dorothy laughing and telling Mother, she always thought Wayne was SO handsome! Sisters!
