She was Jeannette's grandmother. Her name was Angie. She moved to Corcoran, California in 1947. Soon after she met my father, Richard. They were married in 1951. My dad presented her with this ring. A ring that she cherished until the day she died. The ring was a token of deep affection that my dad had for her. My mother gave her heart to the Lord on August 6, 1976. She was a loving Pastors wife for the Latin American Assembly of God Church for 10 years and Holy Trinity Ministry for 5 years. She taught Sunday school for 16 years. Jeannette loved going to her class on Sundays. My mother loved children and it was important for her to make sure they knew Jesus and his miracles. My mother and father attended Fountain of Life for 7 years. She was also a teacher's aid for Corcoran schools for 16 years.
Jeannette loved her grandmother with all her heart. They are both in Heaven now.
I have my mother's wedding ring that I cherish. One day not too long ago, I put it in a secret hiding place for safe keeping. Then, panic struck me. I could not remember where I hid it. I tore the whole house apart and then finally, I found it. OMG, I was so relieved and actually cried from sheer joy. Now I wear it all the time.
I miss my mom and my Nettle Poodle.
