Danita & DaNette make 61 look fabulous!

Danita and DaNette were born on July 30, 1964 — Danita at 11:30 AM and DaNette at 11:33 AM — as fraternal twins to proud parents John H. Wimberly Jr. and the late Bloneva Wimberly. Both of us proudly served in the United States Army: Danita for 33 years, retiring as an E-8 First Sergeant, and DaNette for 20 years, retiring as an E-7 Sergeant First Class. We may fuss and argue, but our bond is unbreakable. And yes, I'm the baby sister — always the protector. We love each other deeply. ❤️
