Well it looks like everyone is done. This is going to be a task to explain.
This is my step-father, the baby is my youngest daughter. So the picture is alittle over 30 yrs. old.
Anyone that had to put up with my mother would be depressed, she was mean, nasty and verbally abusive to anyone and everyone. That included this man.
He drove truck for years, and enjoyed that life. He was a wonderful step dad and a wonderful grandpa. My mother was very jealous of that and made all of us pay for her being unhappy. I haven't spoke to her, or him for over 10 yrs. He wasn't good with babies so when my mother had his daughter, he didn't know what to do, and I was 10, we got along fine. My mother hated that . I don't know if he passed away or not, I did look and couldn't find any death certificate unless it just happened. My mother would never tell me if he was gone or not.
My mother spent the money faster than he could make it and they ended up filing for bankrupcy.
It seems like you all picked up on him and what a good person he was, but also picked up something of the situation around him.
It was hard for me to forgive him, he sided with my mother all the time, so I couldn't get abused from either of them, but always felt he was punishing/displining me because she wanted him to
Good work...................... commits on how you feel now that you know, how do you all think you did?????
