Daddy - The Final Chapter

I hadn't heard from nor tried to contact Daddy since July 04.

In February 05, my cousin, Donna (Mom's sister's daughter), died. She'd been a drug addict most of her life. It seemed to me that she was turning her life around late in 2004. Then she received a cash settlement for some traffic accident she'd been in. Now she had money. I guess the temptation was just too much for her. She and her common law husband got a hotel room and did a bunch of crystal meth. She locked herself in the bathroom and started mainlining it. He said he tried to revive her but she died on the way to the hospital. My poor aunt...this was her 2nd (and last) child she had to bury (the first was stillborn).

You're probably wondering where Daddy fits into this sadness.... There are still 4 cemetary plots in the family cemetary that are titled in joint name. My mom wanted to give one of these plots to my aunt for my cousin. Mom couldn't legally do this without Daddy's signature. So it fell to me to contact him about this. His phone number was disconnected. The email I sent him was returned as undeliverable. We drove past his trailer and it was empty. His car was no longer in the driveway. I got Mom to call that same cousin of his to see what they knew. They told Mom "Oh yes, they moved back to California a couple of months ago!" Well that just burns my bottom! Yet again, he moved and neglected to tell me. I am still supposed to get his phone number from his sister, my Aunt Jean, and call him about switching the plot deeds. I'm not calmed down enough to do that just yet. Besides Aunt Jean just had a battle with breast cancer. I don't want to start talking to her about Daddy while she's not feeling well. I really wish I didn't have to even contact him about the plot deeds. I just want to be SO DONE with him.

The End. (?)
