In a May 2003 email from Aunt Nee’s son, Bill Agnew, he says, “Roxie lived with them in Basket several summers. She said Roxie was short and fat and would smoke a corn cob pipe on their front porch. She had to have a brand of tobacco called "Red Cap". Roxie must have been a little weird. She said when someone came to visit the Dill family, Roxie would face the wall. She thought that if she couldn't see the person or persons, then that person couldn't see her either. “, , , , , , , , , ,
