A Memorium....

It has now been two years since my mother passed away.

There a lot of things I miss about her:

- the way her face would light up when she saw me

- she loved: Dad, Percy, Port Delhousie, McDonalds, John, Wayne Sanders, Alvie, his children and of course her children - "one son", "Anne Marie", "Oh, Teresa", "Hi Kim", "Tammy Irene" - SHE LOVED US ALL!

- the stories she'd tell about dancing and playing the piano with her mother, "The Bucket of Blood", the bikers she hung out with there, Wayne Newton, Elvis Prestley, Wayne from the home, Roger S-s-sss, John, "Pee-Wee" ("Do you know Pee-Wee?")

- she never took any crap from anyone even with her disability she knew who was taking advantage of her and who loved her sincerely - I'm positive she knew more than she could say.

- I miss her smell, her smile, her ways, the way she still liked to hold my hand and kiss me and I'd kiss her back.

I am so blessed that I spent time with her and got to love her not only as a awesome mother but as a wonderful friend too.

Don't stop dancin' Mama, don't stop the music, I can see you in my mind's eye and I miss you but I know you're happier now.


Love Kim xo
