On this day nine years ago, I held our grandmas hand as she took her last breath. I remember getting in my car and speeding to you. You were on the basketball court at Bladensburg Elementary and I told you Mikey come on we gotta go. You kept asking me why you look like that. I said just come on we gotta go. I rushed you to her and you cried kissing her cold cheek asking why she left you. She was our backbone. But 11 months later she was there for you. Even tho I seen that last tear dried up on your face I knew you were not alone but hurt your time had come I will never forget this moment and I will never understand why you both had to go for my daughter to be here. She’s doesn’t just need Ma she needed you all.
