Getting close to….

Troy’s birthday, that’s when a lot of memories come to mind. His Mom and
Dad would take us to Red Lobster for his birthday. His Dad loved seafood. That’s why their freezer was always full of crappie and blue gill that they caught at Lake Cumberland. His Mom fried the best fish. I miss her fried chicken, dumplings, and fried fish. Nobody could fry chicken like she did, it was the best. And her dumplings were right up there too. They would catch all those fish at Lake Cumberland and then she would filet them all. I remember her catching a big turtle that she ended up frying for us. I really didn’t care for the turtle, lol. But after you lose people there are things about them you really miss, things you will never have again. Troy’s chili was something I miss, and I really miss the way he always smiled no matter what, even when he was fighting cancer. He always kept a positive attitude and never complained. All I can say is I miss him, I always will too…..thanks for the memories.
