Summary Of 'Jiminy Cricket Josephine'

I thank you for the all the joy and laughter that I got share with you both. I thank you the two of you for letting your joy and laughter shine throughout the family. From my grandmother's delicious three layer cakes to my aunt's precise quilting skills; those things I will forever cherish. I know for sure that when god called you two up to be with him; he definitely made sure that you two were no longer suffering or in pain. I sit here in grief imagining the both of you eternally jumping from cloud to cloud without a care in the world and without worries. Even though you both left this world differently; the both of you have left an unforgettable legacy throughout the history of our family. I will miss you both and that will never change. I may have sadly lost two beloved family members: but I now and forever will have two angels by my side and guiding me through life. Even though your sudden departures have left my heart empty; I know that the two of you are looking down faithfully upon my family and I. All of the these words, of which, come from the heart.

We go through life and make memories with family and friends that come and go into your life. One of the moments in my life that I will never forget is living in Colorado. When I was about 4-5 years old my mom and my dad was separated because he worked at republic steel in Massillon. At this time my mom lived in Colorado. Well, one specific moment in that time me my older brother Vernon and my twin brother Andre was running in a field near these apartments my mom was living in. I remember me, and my brothers were playing tag when my brother Vernon picked up a stick and we were looking at a socket that was in the building. Vernon thought it was a bright idea to shove the stick into the socket.

She meant the absolute world to me, she still does. I miss everything about her. She inspired me so much. She was such a strong person, I loved how she ALWAYS stood up for what she believed in. Her family was her number one priority. Her and I, we were close. I love her so much. I have so many great memories with her. My favorite memory with her is when, it was her birthday, she came to stay a few nights with us, and it was my grandma, Jace, who was a newborn at the time, and I at our

She was a Nurse for twenty years and she loved her job immeasurably. She worked at University Medical Center here in Las Vegas, in the day surgery department while working the Monday through Friday schedule. She and her friends would always have potluck parties, and after work dinner parties, and one of my favorite memories Include going to Karaoke restaurants for Christmas. My father had a little too many drinks and sang “Miss American Pie”. This happens to be a very long song. Let’s just say he was booed off the stage in embarrassment after a few minutes.

My first childhood memory is my grandpa riding me around in the yard on his four wheeler. And some of my best memories are hanging out with my great grandma every summer when school was out. When I was young my babysitter was my grandma, she would let me do anything I wanted to do.

My loving mother, Ola Mae Pittman, for her constant love and words of wisdom. Mom, you have sacrificed so much for us. I thank God for giving you the strength to endure and always reassuring the family that the Lord will make a way somehow.

One of the memories I recall the most during an ordinary day, occurred when I was 3 and my sister, Lilah, was born. That night in the hospital, I had no clue what was going on, I was three. When it came time for me to actually meet my sister, I was so in awe that I wanted a child of my own. I thought that it would have been the best thing in the world, and that I was going to be a five star mom with all these cool things. I told the nurses that I wanted a child for myself, and they actually got one for me. Not what you’re thinking, they went and got me a baby doll named Marvin. Come time that I saw the toy, I was very mad that they didn’t actually bring me a child. I threw a fit and my parents came home with two crying children. To this day,

I thought I knew her character, but I discovered a whole new dimension upon her passing. Nurses who cared for her during past hospital stays reached out with condolences. Coworkers from 30 or 40 years ago called and sent glowing letters. The retired lady who prepared who taxes years ago came to visitation!

To start off, there is one specific day that I vividly remember. My grandparents and I were taking a short trip to Mississippi to visit my family. I always loved going to my cousins’ house because so many memories of my life were made with them. As we packed up the car, excitement rushed through me for I knew the adventure ahead. We road for hours through the Mississippi hills and soon we had arrived at our destination. We were greeted with big hugs from my family and soon after the fun began. We sat on the back deck for hours talking, listening to

I have many fond memories of my family but I couldn't possibly limit it to one.

She took her commitment of marriage to Tommy (my father) for 50+ years. She was the only one in the family that I can recall that had a Bible out visibly in her house every day, often and she would read. There were no harsh words, no card playing and no fighting. If she caught you fight you would have to kiss and say you’re sorry. She always listened to WDIA on the AM dial and there was always something clean and decent

My earliest memories are of my best friend, my mother, reading with her, drawing with her, sleeping on her, and cooking with her. She used to read The Cat in the Hat everyday to me- so much that she memorized it. When I got older, it became The Magic Treehouse, and then Harry Potter. She had an eternal patience, and even when I made her reread a book twenty times without letting her progress past page twenty, she would oblige. She was my sole entertainer, and she took the job seriously. My mother was the one that taught me Tamil, the language that my family spoke in India. She opened the doors of religion and culture by explaining the basis of Hinduism, what each god metaphorically stood for, and spoke to me as if I were her friend, not her child. Being the inquisitive child I was, I frequently asked questions, and amazingly enough, my mother answered all of them without giving me a senseless answer

Most people remember very little about special moments with their family, and others may not remember anything about it at all. Even so, one memory continues to stand out for me. The first time I learned how to fish I was with one of my biggest influences in life, my dad.

My family has many memories from good to bad, but this is one that I’ll never forget. I would say that seeing my brother/sister born would be the best and it is, but I would exclude it from the list for that it would be an obvious number. My favourite family memory is when we got our first dog, Zac. Zac was a pure german shepherd puppy and we got him from a german shepherd breeder by Rockford. He was a small dog when we got him, but would soon grow up to this big german shepherd. He may have been the most aggressive and energetic dog ever, but he wasn’t doing well and was really sick. It first started with him not eating at all and then one morning I woke up and saw him on the ground not able to pick himself up. We then brought him to the

I have several wonderful memories as a child. The ones that stand out the most, are the ones with my grandfather (Papaw). I never knew my father. He died when I was very young. Papaw was always there for me and I did everything with him. Growing up I remember spending many days and nights with my grandparents. And when Papaw would go somewhere, I had to be right by his side. Whether it was walking out to the garage, going into town, or going to work in his big truck, I would tag along.
