The Boy and I had a funeral to attend today for my Step Moms father who we all called Pop-Pop. Its sad, i don't really know the specifics, but his death had something to do with his lungs. While we were at the cemetery i decided to visit my friend Matt. I had posted about him a few months back. He was murdered in his home along with a 16 year old girl. They still haven't found the murderer and it will be a year in April. Matt only got to see The Boy one time when he was about 2 months old before he died a few months later. I took this picture of The Boy looking at the head stone while we were there. ![]() We went out to eat with my Grandparents and on the way home i decided to stop and get The Boys hair cut, which was long over due and his once awesome Mohawk was starting to look like a not so awesome mullet. I shouldn't make fun of Mullets considering my Dad sorta has one. Sorry Dad. The Boy sat very well for the lady and i am pleased with the way it turned out. Usually i do it myself, but it started getting so long on the top and i wanted it scissored instead of clipped for a nicer finish. Ah, much better, no more Rat-tail Mullet rip off. ![]() An then of course the petting of the Kitty Kitty. and as always holding the Blankie which he calls Gangkie. ![]() Labels: Blankie, haircut, Matt Brumbaugh, Pop-Pop

♥Murder

Six months ago one of my really awesome friends was murdered, his name was Matt Brumbaugh. Along with him a 16 year old girl was killed, her name was Chelsea. Apparently they were roommates, i had never met her before, but Matt had been my friend for about 6 years.We went to high school together. He would stand in front of my house every morning before school and wait for me so i didn't have to walk alone, then during school we would always skip the last class of the day together and sit in the court yard avoiding all teachers. After high school we remained friends, occasionally getting together with other friends to drink, party and catch up on old times. When i got pregnant with Vincent i visited a couple times and the last time i really seen him was when he stopped by my house with two other friends to see Vincent when he came home from the hospital. And the last time i talked to him was about three weeks before he was murdered, he invited me to go to a concert with him, but i decided not to go because i rather stay and take care of my son...... Had i had known id never talk to him again i would have went to the concert, had a great time and told him what an awesome guy he was. I had personally never heard Matt say anything bad about anyone, he would have done anything for his friends and every time i seen him he was smiling. He had this way of asking how i was... he would always say "hows it going Samantha".... I can still hear his voice in my head...... Recently Americas Most Wanted covered their murder case, and i have the episode for you to watch right here, take the time to watch it.... Matt deserves that much considering he didn't deserve for some one to take his or Chelsea's life. Its hard a shit for me to watch when they show the house..... all i can think is I have been in that house, in those exact rooms. I will never go to the house again and though i still have his number programed into my cell phone, i will never call the number again, nor will i ever delete it out of my phone. Matt's not here anymore, but he lives in the many memories of many many friends who miss him very much. Please take the time to watch this video.....
