my beautiful family
my wondeful brother Dale passed away on august 29,1988. him and his wife ruth always thought they would be the other set of parents to amanda and im sure they would have been.they took it so hard when she passed away.it was like they lost one of their own 3 kids.my best friend forever fon davis who brought me ice cream when i had cravings and took me to get a special sub,was at my house the day i had to come home without my beautiful baby girl.i was mad at first,i didnt want anyone to be there except my parents and my friend that brought me home.but later i was ok and he helped me to cemetary to see her resting place.he passed away in june of 2006.its been 2 yrs now and i miss talking to him all the time and my husband misses his jokes.i know he is in heaven with amanda and he promised me to take care of her like a father til i got there.i love you fon and i miss you so much my friend.my dad (w.she was living with me at the time she died.i enjoyed gettingtoho i was daddys little girl) got cancer and passed away within 2 month of treatment on august 6,1991.he was such a good man.he provided all he could for his family.he worked in the coal mines of west virginia and killed himself with coaldust and black lung.i can remember when i was small waiting on him to come home from work with his tin double decker lunch bucket everyday with me a candy bar inside.my siblings was in school.and plus he didnt have money to buy 4.but i was the baby lol i loved the stories he tols us and if you ever get a chance to,please visit the exhibition mines in bleckey wv they take you in on a car like my dad rode in and you go thru a mine and they explain what miners do.it gives you a great sense of meaning and pride for a miner i can tell you that.you will appreciate them alot more.i got the privaledge of going with my daddy thru there so he told us even more then the man did so that was a plus for his kids.i miss you my daddy. my mother passed away on june 16,2001 she lived with my husband and myself.im glad i got to take care of her and spend that extra time with her,i loved my mother but she wasnt one to take love with a grain of salt so to speak.it was hard for her to show emotions.but i know she loved me and she would tell me but it was different then when my daddy told me.if you have children pleease make sure you tell them that you love them everyday.they need to hear that because when you are gone they need them memories trust me.my mom didnt work much she was a housewife taking care of 4 kids and a husband.we always had a garden each yr and she canned alot of food.i remember fried apple pies she made for us all the time fresh.they was so good and i can still smell them today.thanks mom.i love you and i miss you.its so good to know that you and dad are back together in heaven now and watching over your 2 grandbabies,amanda and glenda(my sisters baby) and that you was united with dale.i would have love to seen that reunion because neither one of you was ever the same after losing your son.you both told us it was so hard to go on and each day was a struggle to make it thu that day.im glad you are with him now,even though i miss you both on earth.you are all with god and i hope to get my life on track and get to heaven to so i can be with my beautiful family.Drema Wooten Pearson
