| It all began 40 years before two brothers were rubbed out .. a continuity that was written in blood...of the Father

 .. Death . ...while Jeanette, Little Angela and Nana Lou posed for this picture as three generations of woman joining together in celebration of Life, God and Dreams of Future Joy at Angela's Communion, reality waited but a moment.. just long enough for the flash to die...before resuming its count down to perpetuity... and Death Once More Visited.. The First Born: |
 Your father was dead when they
found him....." |

......so many thoughts
converged within his novice mind. Revenge was the traffic cop... He would get
revenge. They had stolen his mothers happiness; thrust them into a world of sorrow and
depravity ended their lives before they began! “The Family”, “This
Thing of Ours”, it had become a ravaging beast bent upon total destruction. It left
orphans of society in it’s quest for life. For a mere child of the storm, it was he
whom was left to pick up the pieces. Would he ever? Would he truly become the man whom
revenged the dishonor and sorrow that was placed upon his family with abstract, total
disregard to the repercussions of this disastrous act of continuing greed? The
heroes of the theater spoke up as one... You will prevail! But, what of Sparticus? What of
all those heroes whom battled injustice only to die a glorious death in the end! Was he
ready for that? Like Charleston Heston in Ben Hur, would he return for the ending the hero
whom rescued his family with the assistance of GOD? “Oh, God, where art thou now?
Come to me and deliver your power to defeat mine enemies -- they abound like a plague of
locust. Send to them a shower of fire and ice! The death of the first born has occurred!
Please, let my people go! This trial and tribulation has desecrated my soul, my Knight in
Shining Armor is gone. Will you to take up my cause...” Was
God going |
Nana Lou: ,,, she was more then the matriarch.. she ruled the  roost. Her love of the "Night Life" and "Mobsters"
allowed her to forget about her only child.. leaving Jeanette to grow up alone; to wonder
all her life what happened to Her Father.. who, one day, also, simply vanished... Who bore responsibility |

Joe’s father never truly got over the fact
that his oldest son had a deformity. But Jesus provided Joe with the power to love his
father. He never held his father’s treatment against him, just prayed that they would
someday come together. When his father was taken from him, all sorts of thoughts went
through his head; did God take him because of his treatment? Had his prayers caused his
demise? The questions were overwhelming. How did he die! He felt that he had been privy to
his demise. Did he not ask God to convince father that he was “normal? Did he not ask
Jesus to come down and be his father? His father was taken from him just as he was
beginning to be his proud son. What were the facts? These questions allowed a powerful,
purposeful, planned battle to develop with in his mind... though crippled at birth, would
he rise and save the family? Would he become like those of his ancestors.. and visit death
at an early age.. leaving the woman to suffer as all before.. He was now 8 and faced with
the responsibility of manhood...
