Losing a Mom/Best Friend
Now this one is really tough for me, too. Our dear friend Teresa, from Texas, lost her mom, her best friend on February 10, 2001. So young – so important – such an awful time for her and her family members to go through such a loss. Darlene Gardner, so vibrant, so excited about being…
One hour to first drawing

To Dave Vizgaudis
He was one of my Gramma’s husbands, but I’ll say he’s Papa, because that’s what we called him before he died. The terrible chain of events started when he got a heart-attack on his motorcycle, from that he got brain-damage, and he lost most of him memory. But what actually killed him, was the cancer…
