Are You Ready For Some Field Day!!!!

11/08/2025

I would like to thank every single one of my loved ones, family members,friends, acquaintances and all of those that I don't even know for the outpouring of affection following the passing of my daughter Tanicka. My heart will be forever broken and my life will never ever be the same. I will carry on and continue to march for the sake of my wonderful grandchildren. We did not plan to have a repass. After the service I just wanted to be alone to reflect on everything that happened. Upon arrival to my home, we discovered the backyard and house jam packed. Fortunately, Patti had prepared food for the household to last a couple of days. Someone had made a big tray of sandwiches and someone else made a restaurant run. We fed those that wanted to eat. The silver lining during this sad occasion was that my adoptive mother and my biological mother got to meet each other. They talked, held hands, laughed and hugged each other. A remarkable occasion brought on by tragedy. I want you all to know that mere words can't describe the love and appreciation I have for you. We will never ever forget the joy Tanicka brought to our lives. I will think of her every day for the rest of my life. I pray for God's strength and mercy for the future and may God bless each and every one of us.
