In loving memory of my Uncle Dee the time of the shooting I was at my cousins house, next thing u know she comes running saying someone got shot at the time we didn’t know and then she came back and said it was Dee. It couldn’t be true is what I told my self, I kept saying it and saying it, I called my great grandma to come get me, she came and got me and I told her what happened and then she shook her head and we went to my grandma Teat’s house and I saw blue and red lights and I saw yellow tape. I ran out the car and past the tape and there he was there Dee was with a wound to his head they pulled back out in tears then they put a white sheet on him now all I see is that a flash back that makes me mad cause all I see is him on the ground it flashes back and all I do is cry cause i cant keep fighting it. LLD forever my keeper.
