~*In Loving Memory Of my Only Sissy*~ ;
To My Beloved Sister;
Vicky LaVerne Whitehead
Feb19,1954~July29,1976
My sister and I had some good times,for sure.
We'd feel we were rich if we only had a dime.
We'd run to the corner store and buy frito's
and a small sack full of penny candy and gum.
We were taught to share , so we'd all get some.
We loved to play house...and aggrevate our brothers.
Lord knows they did their share of tormenting us!
We also loved to make mud pies , with Bonnita and Donnita, they were Twins
so we gave up and went on to play with our friends
It was fun until one of the boys were sent over.
do summer salz,and cartwheels.
My sister always gave us a thrill,
For she was the queen of doing cartwheels.
We also loved to see who could swing the highest
and then jump out,
Alot of fun until our Mama gave us a shout!
would let us go to the movie theater on Fridays.
We all had chores to do through the week
to pay our own way in.
In the summer we would all go swimming,
We all could swim like fish , so we'd have races
and who ever was last we called a rotten egg.
Perhaps I could have recorded more events
to now look back on.
Little did we know that your life
would've been cut short.
I'm thankful for the memories I have.
I just wish there were new ones,
but most of all...
I wish you were still here with me.
at age twenty two.
I love you Sissy, and I am still missing you!
At least on holidays , our Mama is
there with you.
