    Hey mom it’s Curtis I never thought I’d lose you the way I did. We lost Judd a couple years ago. I hope he’s with you and I hope you’re in a good place and rest. I never got to make peace with your passing and I don’t think I ever will you left us too soon. I’m 43 years old now. Chloe is 19. All of your grandchildren are grown and doing well. I didn’t get to say it to you in the living years so I’ll say it here. I’m sorry for the way I talk to you and treated you before you passed and for anytime and her past I can’t get over some things I said to you cause I never got to apologize while you were alive. I miss and think of you almost every day. I LOVE MOMMA!!!!
