Mom & Andy at her house on 6th Street
This was a very happy day for our Mother and Brother Andy. Mom & Dad had moved into their home that they had purchased and Mom was proud that her tips that she had saved for many years helped them with the downpayment. Mom loved when we came over to be with her and Dad to enjoy their beautiful home. There was always something cooking at the house to make you want to stay as long as they would allow. Ha Ha! We had to go home sometime. Andy still lived in his hometown of Casper at the time. When I look at this picture I can see them holding onto each other with smiles on their faces telling us we will see you when you all come HOME to be with us. God Bless all of us. Priscilla

Yes,here it is a year since you left us.I am holding you in my heart every day.And I am reminded day by day of thoses last conversation's you and I had.Knowing that theses would be the last words that would hold dear through out my life time.Yes,it was hard my brother to hear thoses words that you had cancer and that it was a stage-4.You were troubled and I remembered walking into your living room one morning .Wild horses my brother couldn't keep me away.You told me that you were so happy to see me walk through your front door. You told me I looked like a angel.And you said You knew it was going to be alright .I came to you brother and said"I am here "And you looked without worry,and pain,and smiled.
And we got to work,your concern's were to get this cancer under control.You were part-time and had not been able to work and had to make Dr visit's with co-pay.Needed special liquid diet and med's after month's of trying to convience you to allow me to have a benefit BBQ for you to help with all your need's.Harry and I rolled up our sleeves and in july for 5 day's we got it done.came to you with the $$$ and asked what you wanted to do first.your home was under construction and you wanted harry and I to hire to do the construction on your home.rewired,the front ,cousin christine and hubby textured the living room,you and I went through box's of item's and paper work that you had all theses years' I painted the front living room,cleaned your home,and organized. For theses were things that you wanted done and Harry and I stepped up.And with the benfit $$ I payed your property tax's and Dr bill's all of them water,electric bill,gas,house payments,construction on home,a new bathrroom that you were so excited about,cleaned and organized your home,yard,payed off your time share.This we did for you andy and I stayed by your side and we shared thoses sibling memories.And you thanked me for being there.You wanted to be sure that your house would one day be Your son's.And that he would be proud of it .I did all that I could and that you asked my brother.It is your angel grace that will do the rest.My promise has been sealed,All I did was for you Andy.And if it goes with out graditute from some.Then be it I am good in my heart Brother.And shall I say blessed to have had you all theses years.Life goes on indeed,and so does my memories of you.Kiss Mom,Dad,Roger,anthony,Steve martin, I know your having a awesome time together.You would tell me not to look so sad...Turn it all over to our "God".Amen
