Remembrances |
|
“Melanie is my sister who was three years older than me. We both had green eyes. She was loved by her five sister and two brothers very much. I remember bicycling with her when we were younger.i also remember how much she loved her first born, Aisha. She went with Jim Jones because she believed she would have a better life. I am writing this in tears. This is the first time since the trajedy that i have been able to confront her death and her children's death. Prior to her death, she sent my mother a letter expressing in code that she, ak old lady sucky, wanted to come home. in vern say her second baby girl, 'z' she was born in Guyana. Dear melanie, you will never be forgotten. ” - jacinta powers“ Memories of My Sister ” - Jacinta Hector Powers |
