What’s the nicest thing anyone has ever done for you?
My Mom! My so called dad abandoned his family for a woman next door when I was 11 with two brothers 9 and 4! He also took out a secret balloon loan on the house that my mom didn’t know about until the bank showed up and wanted full payment. This was the 60’s when a divorced woman couldn’t get any credit and was expected to go on welfare! My mother went to the bank and begged for a loan to keep a roof over our heads! They took a chance on her and she paid off a 30 year mortgage in 6 years working in a factory and raising 3 boys with an eighth grade education. She worked her fingers to the bone to give us everything we needed including college. I could never pay her back for all she did for us and she would not have taken anything if I had tried. She worked nights in the factory and came home to grow a garden, canned food and maintained the house making sure we had something to eat. She was everything to us and I still miss her every day. The picture is of my mom with her grandsons which were my sons.
