On Sunday May 1, 2011 we lost Corey's dad to a long battle with cancer, and other things! He's much better off but it doesn't make it hurt any less! It was a sad but special day too! It was his Birthday so he got the greatest gift anyone could receive too meet our Creator and lord an Savior on his Birthday! He was a great man the 8 yrs I got to know him! He accepted me with open arms and never once acted like I didnt belong! It made me feel good to see how much of a family man he was! He loved his wife, kids, grandkids, and great grandkid! He took time out for them all, he never met a stranger and loved fishing! He's gonna be missed by so many but he's so much better off! He's not in any pain nor is he suffering anymore! We laid him to rest on Wednesday and it was my first ever military funeral! It was something that everyone should experience once in their life! It was a great honor to be a part of that great mans Life! When you hear Taps being played in the background if it doesn't bring tears to your eyes then I guess your not a true American! He was buried with military honors and it was something to see! When they presented the flag to his wife and the gentleman said what he said it made me cry again! Thanks Jody for fighting one of the worst fights ever! Vietnam was a hard war! Welcome home Jody and as you run freely remember to look at us and help us get along! We love you Jody Holland!
Now to mother's day is one week from the day Jody died! Its gonna be a hard day for Betty but I think with her boys around her she will be fine! To my mom that raised me to be the woman that I am today I love you and Thanks for supporting me in all I've done! To my stepmother that has seen me thru some tough times, had our ups and Downs but made it thru thanks for continuing to shape me into the woman I am! Thanks for helping my mom! To Margie the one that's seen me grow up, lost touch with me, found me again, and helped to continue to shape me into the female that I currently am! Life without all these women in it wouldn't Be the way it is today! Not sure I'd be who I am! Last but not least to my grandmother that taught me many things to help me survive this world we live in I love you mamaw and give Jody a hug for us! Your missed more and more daily! Happy mother's day to all mothers reading This!
When I set this blog up it was for more less a way for me to vent my feelings and a way for me to tell others how I feel! It helps ie to speak my mind without intentionally hurting someone! If they Get offended then I'm Sorry now! Thanks for all my readers and all my followers! Good night blog!
