My parents were both losers and so there for my fathers parents raised me since I was one years old. They took over full custody of me when I was three years old. They were married fifty-two years before my Grandfather passed away, which was May of 2009. Now that I am thirty-one years old I see so much of them in me. I was raised very old fashioned and without a whole lot of restrictions. Their rules were simple, “Get good grades and do whatever you want within reason.”
My Grandparents were my world and I miss them very much. They were such awesome people and everyone who met them fell in love with them instantly. They were loving, caring, understanding, open minded, honest, helpful, strict, teaching, respectful, hardworking, soft spoken, giving people, and I was very lucky to have been raised and taught to be like them. When I went to prison I had to take drug treatment and during my involvement with the class I wrote a letter to my Grandparents. It is a sad and soulful letter that I decided to use in my book. Check out Mysteries of my Mind to read it. I have two half chapters in my book dedicated to them. They lived interesting lives and produced a person such as myself who is currently living her interesting life =) I have a Tattoo on my Right
calf dedicated to my
Grandfather of Toy Soldier in the
shape of a star. I miss them so much...
