I meant to say that our mom and niece's(Tara Ousley) birthday is April 8th, not April 6th. Dad's birthday is April 6th. Tommy also passed away at 1:45AM on the 7th of April, the real time for a musician to finish up a gig and get off the stage time. I came to realize that, too. I also meant to type GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL YOUR LOVED ONES, HAVE A BLESSED DAY EVERYONE~!!! THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR ENTRIES HERE, ALSO~!!! Your entries here are WELL APPRECIATED FROM YOU~!!! ??? :-)))

I think of Tommy everday along with the passing of your oldest brother "Pat" that has pasted away this past Jan. 17th, 2011. We also had a cousin pass away a about 1 to 1/12 weeks after Tommy had pasted. I am caring for our 80 year old father now. He's almost deaf and has Alzheimers Disease and can't remember things/people righteously. I'm doing my best to tend to him. I dote him with everything. He's a handful, but someone must be truly responsible, so I am it. Hopefully things will get better for that are left in the family. Of course I love all of my family members. Tommy died on the only day just between our parents birthdays. Dad is April 6th and mom was April 6th. Our niece,Tara Ousley shared the same birthday as our mom. She is 36 years old now. She was born on mom's 50th birthday, too. I remember that and going to the hospital with mom to see her right after the natural birth her parents chose to do with her. I was a teenager then, age of 16. Two years earlier her older sister was born,Jennifer Ousley,I was 14 then and what an experience seeing a baby born for the first time in my life at that age. It was a life long and lasting impressing experience that was, too for me. Being so young and being able to somewhat participate in the events of their births. These girls are Pat's daughter, my oldest brother who had five grandchildren at the time of his death. Being so young and a great aunt, I like that title of a name. I say prayers for my family members alive ones and the deceased ones. My cousins name was Pauline (Goodman) was her maiden name who lived in Arkansas. She was my grandpa's niece. Monroe was her dad and my Grandpa Frank's older brother. I went to Monroe's funeral services in California many years back,he died right on his 95th birthday. We were having a family reunion in CA in his honor and he then up and pasted away on that 95th birthday of his. He and many of dad's people are from Arkansas. Dad was born there and so was I. I hope to get Tommy's memorial benefit together in the fall when it is cooler and so others can plan for their arrival that are having to pay plane fairs in order to attend. This obituary will be up for until June 15th, 2012. Feel free to visit here anytime you like and God You and All of US~!!! HAVE A BLESSED DAY~!!! PEACE AND LOVE BE WITH YOU AND ALL YOUR LOVED ONES~!!! KEEP TOMMY IN OUR HEARTS FOREVER AND IN OUR PRAYERS. HAPPY FATHERS'DAY TO ALL THE GUYS OUT THERE~!!! ~~~ALWAYS~~~ KIM~~~??? :-)))
