A Legacy For Lexi

Should All Of Us Leave A Part Of Us Behind In This World

This is as personal as it gets, and it will differ with each individual. What is it they say about opinions, everyone has one.

Why Do I Want To Leave a Legacy

Perhaps it is because of the things that have happened to me in my life, that I want to leave something behind me for someone else.

I lost my father before my eighth birthday. He died suddenly of a massive heart attack, at 45 years of age. I was left to piece together the legacy of my father, which took me many years. I am not sure that I have pieced it all together yet, and I am 74 years old. You have to depend on people answering your questions, and then you do not know about the accuracy of the answers provided to you.

I did learn that my father was a hard working man that had visions way past the scope of how he was bought up, and I suppose you would say, he was a good example of a poor boy that turned things around for himself.

I lost my own son to murder at 44 years of age, and I have been trying to piece together his legacy ever since he died.

Neither man, my father or my son, had the opportunity to leave their own legacy. My son was brutally murdered and lost his life in a few seconds to 12 bullets, and my father lost his life to a 30 second coronary occlusion.

Both died in less than a minute and left this world unprepared.

What Am I Leaving My Granddaughter And Why Her

Let's start with why Lexi? I see myself in my Granddaughter Lexi. I saw myself in her actions and in her kind heart. She was a late child and so I wanted to leave her part of myself, since I do not get to see her very often at all.

Lexi, always bonded with me, and I have memories of her, holding her little arms up to me when she was a toddler. She would text me while she was in her bedroom, and she was always appreciative of everything I did for her and everything I ever gave her.

Lexi is just one of the sweet souls of the world, and even the last time I saw her in August 2023, she was kind and loving towards me. There is just some people in this world that are meant to show love and kindness and Lexi is certainly one of them.

These Song Lyrics Were Inspired By Her Mother

Along with my home and other things, including silver coins I have saved for her, and collectable coins, I have a special surprise for my precious Granddaughter. However, before I get to that, I have bought and saved some stocks for you, including Wendy's. When they volunteerd to do the humanitarian effort for the homeless, I told them that my Granddaughter was a stock holder. You also have three other stocks, that I have put on divadend reinvestment for you, and you have one share of Verizon stock that is UTMA, that your father is custodian of. That share of stock is in your name and when you are twenty-one years of age, the custodainship of that stock reverts to you. The last time I spoke to your Dad, he had not put the stock on dividend re-investment.

This Final Gifts Are Leaving You Part Of Myself

I plan on writing a childrens book of poetry on kindle. I plan on leaving you the rights to the residual income from that book.

Also, I wrote a song years ago, after visiting with your Mom and Dad. Your Mom inspired this song. I wrote it on the way home from Selbyville, where you lived, and I stopped at McDonalds and wrote it on McDonalds napkins. Before I die it will be protected by copy write and I will have the music written out on a sheet of music paper along with the words. There will also be a tape of your Mom Mom singing this song and playing the guitar.

The Song Is Called "The All Famous Mother In-Law"
