Happy Birthday, Son... I Miss You, Tommy

Happy Birthday, Son... I Miss You, Tommy

By Gloria Faye Brown Bates/aka Granny Gee



November 20, 1969... Thursday morning at 11:28 am a little baby was born.  He weighed 8 lbs. 4 1/2 oz.  He was 21 inches long.


This little baby had a lot of blonde hair.  He was perfect, beautiful.  Tommy was born... my son, my only child was born.


May 29, 2010.... on a Saturday evening at Myrtle Beach, he collapsed on the beach, died.  He was playing with his little three year old son for the first, and last time.


November 20, 2012... Tommy would have been 43 years old today had he lived.
I miss you, Son.  Your mama loves you.  I miss you, Tommy.
