Dear Janice ,
Our relationship was at times strained. But l will not forget you. Your always be my big sister.
Since you have been gone, a lot has happened.
Your a grandmother once again. Misty gave birth to the most beautiful little boy you can image. All of this happening during the heights of the Covid 19 pandemic which has swept across our country, claiming many lives. I found out about it only after the fact.
Why am l always the last to know? She has a gentleman in her life named Bailey - and l believe he loves her very much.
I wish the two would get get married already…
You would be so proud . The baby is growing up healthy and seems to have been just what Misty needed in her life.
I see pictures of her now doting on the baby., where in which she is always smiling . She is an excellent mom!
The child reminds me a little bit of your father Bill Shropshire. Unmistakable resemblance.
Amanda as far as l know is doing well, with all her children who vary in ages. It be quite a handful for her and her husband l can imagine.
It hard to tell because l think l was blocked on Facebook by her …a while ago. Not sure why? But it’s probably for the best.
A lot of pain here because of tragic events of the past. And I’m a reminder l think , of some of these events which cannot be forgotten, except maybe with the passage of time.
Saw a picture recently of Buddy Holly on Facebook, which brought back a lot of memories. He was always a stand up guy, who tried really hard to provide for his family under very difficult circumstances.
It was about that same time l began to realize the Tilford Trust was beginning to have money problems.
I felt that had we provided some financial help in that situation you guys could have made it.
After you guys left abruptly to live in a motel room it seemed everything degenerated rather quickly.
Soon afterwards you disappeared and l will never forget the look on Buddy’s face when he came to the house with the babies to report you missing at the time.
God these were troubling times.
It wasn’t until years later l figured it out.
I can’t understand why things happen the way they do?
When we finally reestablished contact after many years, it all began to make sense.
Addiction, depression is a horrible thing to deal with.
I had plenty of experience with that dealing with mom and her 30 year drinking problem which at times was unbearable to have to deal with.
With all that said…I sincerely hope that you finally found “the peace” you search for almost your entire life and didn’t find here in the first life, you will in the next.
God bless and keep you!
Luv ya
Bobby
