Good morning Son, this is Mom. I'm missing you like crazy right now. It is Halloween season. Soon Thanksgiving and Christmas is around in the next few months. I know this is your favorite time of year. Not sure yet if I am cooking for Thanksgiving. But if I do, you can be sure I will make enough to have around for Christmas. Son, Mom had to have a revision done on my right knee. It has been 3 months since but other stuff has been hindering my forward process. Right now I am praying that I...

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY Son !!!!!! May your day be the Best !!!!!!

Good evening my Son, this is Mother. I am wishing you the Most Happiest of Birthdays that I can give. You are making 43 today. Just imagine yourself 43 years ago. So happy and with a smile that could light up the world. I am so sorry I could not make it out to see you today. I've just had surgery done on last Thursday, your Grandmother Marilyn's birthday. So far everything is ok. Just a lot of pain. I had to get a revision surgery on my right knee. There was a lot of work that Dr....

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY Son !!!!

Good evening my favorite Son. Yes I know you are my only Son. Happy Birthday to you. You are getting older and I need to start feeling younger. Yes, I still look good. I was out to see you today and I noticed you were getting two new neighbors. They both arrived together in the same place so you should be meeting them soon. I did not do our traditional Rally burger meal today. Instead I bought grilled chicken, waffle fries and a peach milkshake. I got really full really fast. Had...

Brother Donald! Brother Turtle! You crossed my mind today as I was getting some things together for my Athletic Program. I thought about what an amazing athlete you where when we played sports together in our NORD days. When I played against you at Pradat, you where our most feared opponent. When we became teammates at Goretti, you were my favorite person on the team. I was stunned at the news of your passing when I found out, but I wanted you to know that you were an amazing individual. Rest...

Good morning Son. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! Yes I know it is a bit early but I've been waiting until the sun came up. It has been really hot lately but we are all managing to stay as cool as we can. Me cutting the grass has been a bigger chore than I can remember as of late but I will blame it on the heat. Most of the Family will be going to Port Allen for that Friends & Family presentation on Saturday. For absolute sure I may not be going. Work has Saturday as a blackout day so if...

Good morning Son, this is Mother. Christmas Eve and Christmas Day has come and gone. I've missed you so much. 17 years have gone by since you've been gone. I've missed you so much. This Christmas I did make my gumbo. I made my BBQ ribs with my herb and butter rice. Every thing was so good. I had visitors to come by but there is still a lot of gumbo left. I need to freeze most of it so it doesn't go bad. Overall, it was a nice, very very cold day. The sun was out and the day was very...

Hey Son, one more thing. All of the family is wishing you a very, very happy 40th Birthday!!!! Love you ALWAYS Son.
