So where were u 24 years ago tonight? I know where I was...I was talking to my dad before I went to my grandmas for the night, because it was a Thursday night and I had school the next morning...So after I got $5.00 from him (cause u know a girl always gets money from their dads) I gave him a hug and kiss and rode my bike to my grannys, at 830pm (round or about)...The next day (August 25th) I got up just like any other school day and went to school, ready for the weekend...I was having talk with my best friend, Kim Moreland- Prell, in Home Ec about our dads..and I was praising mine how good of a dad he is and my love for him...well I left school early that day, as any other teenager would..my sister got out of school early so I left also...At around 530-6pm that day (August 25th) I got a phone call that I will never forget, my dad had been shot and was being rushed to the hospital...that day my world sunk!!! He didnt make it....Seems like yesterday, but in other minutes seems like 100 years since I saw that shit eatn grin and him telling me that "he loved me and would see me when he got back in from work" as I left him that night (24 years ago)...Tomorrow I will drink a beer or two for my dad and smile of the thoughts and memories of him, as all my family will...Cause trust me...if u knew Melvin Martin Sr (aka "Mans")...u def got stories and memories!!! He was and still is, 1 of a kind...I love u dad!!!
