Mother's Life
My mom was raised in a family of 11 children. She used to say there was five born before me and five born after me and then there was me in the middle. That is exactly how the birth of each child was as they came into the world.
Life was not easy for my mom. She had a strict father and a loving christian mother. They were poor and her father was a farmer and the farm was all they had to make a living to raise that many children.
Mom left home and married early in life. She had my brother Curtis first and my brother Don second. I was the baby of the family and their only girl. She married Fred Buchanan in 1932.
Life was not easy for them and they both worked hard to keep a roof over our heads. We were happy in a lot of ways. My mom had the kind of personality that people loved. She laughed a lot and loved her children.
People liked being around her because she never saw a stranger.
She is with God and Jesus and is happy to be with her family who have passed on.
I love you Mom,
Your Daughter,
Patty
