Mother of Your Community: Aubrey Norris Totten

 

This is my mom Aubrey Norris Totten. There are many great stories but I can't pick one :). She may be crazy but that's what makes her unique! I'm married with 2 kids now but I know if i ever need anything, she'll be there to help in a heartbeat. She's an animal lover. Any stray that seems to be neglected, she'll take care off. I do know one time we found a mama possum dead but her little babies were still alive. She nursed and fed them.
