Precious Memories

Hoochie couldn't believe his luck and that he had bumped into his niece. It had been close to thirty years  since he'd seen her. He remembered her leaving his daddy's house on Wagonwood Street when she was around twenty years old. He knew she had to be fifty years old now or damn near close to it. Last he heard anything about her was about four years ago when Ol' Greasy Steve had said on the news that his department was reopening an old arson file they believed was connected to the disappearance of a well known notorious Madam from years before. That particular Madam was the mother of his good acquaintance, Big Star. It was never directly stated that Vanessa Shelton was the primary suspect, but rather inferred. Anyway, it had been interesting to watch that investigation unfold. It seemed every time Greasy Steve's department got a new lead to follow that he so eagerly announced through a public press conference, his departments financial records also came under heavier and heavier scrutiny for funds misappropriation. Dang the luck!
