Our life with Mom and Dad

September 18, 2015

This is a story about a man who loved a woman, and that woman had a baby daughter. This babies name was Patricia Arlene Kepley. My Mothers name was Esther Naomi Kepley. My Daddy had died in a trucking accident, and his name was :
Wilbur Curtis Kepley. Well, anyway, my Mom met a man named Thomas William Barnett Sr. He worked at a gas station across the street from the restaurant my Mom worked at. They started dating and fell in love and married. This wonderful man, adopted me and i bacame Patricia Arlent Barnett. They started a family of their own, and along came Nancy Sue, then they brought Shirley into the world. Finally along came a son, Thomas William Barnett JR. Dad had a son by a previoous marriage also, and his name was Gary Lee Barnett. He lived with his Mother Blanche.  We had a good life and spent most of our summers at the lake where we had a trailer. We had a great time at the lake, swimming, skiing, sitting around camp fires, and having dances and fish fries, and just partying. The place has changed quite a bit now, but i guess the new group of people, and the older ones who still have places are still having fun and enjoying the fishing and all the things we used to do. I sure do miss those times. I sure do miss my Mom and Dad. I miss the nights we spent around the campfires, telling jokes and laughing so hard we would end up crying.
