This breaks my heart. This is the home of my grandparents. This is where my mother was born. Her first two children, my brothers, were born. Another Wilson son, Howard Fitts, Jr. was also born there. After my grandfather passed it was purchased by Dr. Best, another Black doctor.
A part of history lost. 😞
