Happy Birthday Mom

Happy 80th, Mom. Unbelievable what you must have went through in your life. Born dirt poor and never made it past 5th grade. You were beautiful until your demons wore you down. Demons can do that, you know.
Her and my Dad, circa 1949. That's my older brother.

Probably 1962 or so. She looks great here. That's my sister

My sister's best friend Missy and my mom Christmas Eve 1973.

My sisters wedding October 1977

The last picture of her. My wedding 1988. She died in October of that year. What I wouldn't give for just 30 seconds with her. I love you, Mom. You did the best you could. I will always admire that.
