| I'm looking for an Angel To sing my love song tol But until the day That one comes along I'll sing along with you Written by Harriet Tyler She was Joeys grandmother and he love and missed her everyday of his life. On the night he died he told Krystal his grandma needed him. |
| This page used to be dedicated to Krystal The woman who my son loved so very very much. But I no longer feel obligated to keep his memories with her alive. As of yesterday, when her and her mother told me that my grandson needs councelling to deal with the loss of his father by suicide. (which they had to have been the ones to tell him how his daddy died in the first place.) And that since I am not a constant in Andrews life I can no longer see or talk to him. (This is all untrue, I have visited several times since moving here in the last 2 years. I have called him on his grandmothers cell phone and left messages that she says she never got. My sister has made arrrangements to get Andrew and they don't follow through or return any of her calls either, saying she never got any calls from either of us.) I no longer have to hold back the knowledge of the pain she caused my son by using my Grandson as a pawn. Joey did write of this pain in his journal. She told him the night he died, and these are her words to me. August 21, 2001 Joey didn't come to work, I called him all day. Tony and I had to run an errand, we were thinking about stopping by Joey's but I said NO, something inside me knew I could not go there. When we got back to the office I tried Joey's Cell phone again. Then I called Krystal, I asked her if she knew where Joey was, as he had this dinner planned the night before in the hopes of them working things out. She said he was probably at home sleeping it off, that they had got into a fight because she was moving to PA and Joey would never see Andrew again. She said Joey tied her up and was gonna make her watch him kill himself, but she got away and called the cops. He told them he wouldn't do it. They gave Andrew to Krystal and she left never thinking to call me and tell me Joey was threating suicide again. If only she had called. It almost killed me to walk to my son's coffin with her on my arm, so everyone would see that beating her up would not be good as I would no longer get to see my Grandson. Shortly after Joey died, Krystal gave custody of my grandson to her mother. Then at one point shortly after Joey died while I was getting counceling to learn how to live without my son, the other Grandmother called and told me on my cell phone that she didn't want me seeing Andrew any more as I was mentally unstable since Joey died. WELL DUHHHHHH THAT IS A NO BRAINER Who would be. But then she realized how much Andrew loved me, so I have been seeing my grandson, since my son's death even staying at the other grandmothers house when I would drive to Ohio. And to her credit, when I got severly burned she took such wonderful care of me, that for that I will always be grateful, she showed me a kind side of her that not many people had seen before. I really still to this day will always hold respect for the other grandmother, she has been the one constent in my Grandson's life. That is why I will not go to court and fight this, it would only hurt my grandson more, I will wait for him to come to me as we have formed a bond that NO ONE will ever be able to break no matter how hard they try. Any way my point to all of this. I finially got to say what I always thought, she might not have put the cord around his neck but Krystal pushed the chair. Sending him over the edge, she will have to live with that one for the rest of her life. Women should not USE their children to hurt men because they feel hurt because you never know what a man will or will not do for his child. My son, couldn't handle the thought of his child calling another man DADDY, he didn't want his son having mutiple step fathers. He just wanted a FAMILY Jackie January 2005 What a wonderful way to start the new year off. Well right before Christmas 2005 Dawn let me talk to Andrew again, and I went to see him in April oh how he has changed but the one thing that hasn't changed is that Andrew still remembers me and his daddy, it just goes to show that time and space mean nothing that love is the greatest bond of them all.
