4 sisters in Bowling Green honor fallen sibling with photoshoot
BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – What began as a tribute from four sisters to their fallen sibling became a fun photoshoot full of flashes, ice cream and lots of laughter.
Lunelle Upton called the Bungalows at Bowling Green home for a few months and said she really enjoyed the community.
She loved it so much that she even asked her sister Leda to move in.
“She said, ‘You have to come to Bungalows,’ and I said, ‘Me and my sisters will go pick me out a room,'” said Leda Wilson, sister of Lunelle. “I’ll do whatever you all want me to do, I’ll try to be good.”
Unfortunately, just before Leda’s move-in date, Lunelle’s death was announced.
As they were going through the sad time, Lunelle’s sisters thought to themselves that ice cream would cheer them up at that moment, and that’s when they remembered something.
“Somebody said we should have some ice cream here, and that’s when we remembered Lunelle had some ice cream in her apartment,” said Kaye Crowe, sister of Lunelle and twin of Daye Young. “So we all just moved down there and decided we would just celebrate with a little ice cream party.”
Leda, Joy, Kaye, and Daye enjoyed an entire carton of ice cream in their late sister’s room in honor of her and snapped a photo to capture the moment in time.
Growing up, they all loved eating ice cream and enjoyed being around each other and still do to this day.
Leda’s three sisters visit her quite often and even joke that they’ll all be living in the Bungalows together someday.
This gives them a chance to bond and be together and enjoy ice cream like they always have. They enjoy the sweet treat very much, and this wasn’t the first time they took down a carton together.
“When our brothers wife passed, we were down at his house that night and there were more of us out there, and he had two or three cartons. But anyway, we killed a carton there in her honor too,” said Joy Richey, Lunelle’s youngest sister.
Though Lunelle is no longer with them, her spirit still lives on throughout the community of the Bungalows and within her four sisters.
