Im the one who named her Minnow. I lived w/her as a child and that is how I pronounced her name. And it stuck. As she was small in stature, it fit her well. To this day, we all know and love her by that name. Your niece, Nancy (or as you lovingly called me .the pest.) Nancy Culver (Dunedin, FL)
Minnow, I know you are in a better place but you’ll be missed. Dawn DuBois (Douglasville, GA)
