REMEMBERING TOMMY... I MISS YOU, SON



REMEMBERING TOMMY... I MISS YOU, SON
By Gloria Faye Brown Bates/aka Granny Gee









































NOTE BY THIS AUTHOR:  I AM FORTUNATE TO HAVE ANY PHOTOS... WE LOST ALL IN A HOUSE FIRE DECEMBER 28, 2004. 

I HAD A HUGE SUITCASE FULL OF OLD PHOTOS THAT I'D NEVER GOTTEN A CHANCE TO PUT IN ALBUMS... THE SUITCASE WAS UPSTAIRS... IT SURVIVED THE FIRE. 

THE FIREMEN'S HOSE HAD SATURATED THE SUITCASE WITH WATER... MANY PHOTOS WERE DAMAGED AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS ABOVE.

I AM SO GRATEFUL TO HAVE THEM... DAMAGED, OR NOT.  THAT'S ALL I HAVE LEFT TO SEE MY SON, NOW.     GLORIA FAYE BROWN BATES/AKA GRANNY GEE    (EASTER 2014).

  1. I am so glad yuor pictures survived the fire! I remember seeing Tommy trying to find things after the fire one day. I don't think he found anything much. Everything had melted. Your pictures looks good compared to what they could have looked like. I think those that loved Tommy (and that was everyone!) miss him too. Love, Ms. Nancy
