If I thought the gods deserved it I would curse them. I had the worst weekend of my life. Well, no that's wrong but it certainly is a close second at the moment. While everyone in America was celebrating Easter and watching their children hunt for colored eggs my family and I were mourning the passing of a family member. My 24 year old niece Ebonie suddenly died on Saturday morning of sudden heart failure. She left behind a husband that adored her, a five year old son, and a one and a half year old daughter.
Depeche Mode said it best when they sang the song Blasphemous Rumors. My niece had just decided to turn to "God" and start attending church and all that good stuff. Shortly after she announced the changes that she was going to make not less than a week later she is gone. WTF?
She was my favorite niece. I had a bond with her that was special between us. She was the only that had a strong love for animals like mine and so we would talk for hours about different species and compare notes of what we knew about them. She was always calling me to ask me about her rabbits, her dogs, or about something she had heard else where and what she thought needed to be done and what I knew needed to be done. She loved it when she was right and made notes when she was wrong. I am going to miss her phone calls. I'll miss her telling me that I need to date a woman with color and how I need to stay away from psychotic white women. *laughs* I will miss her giving me a rough time about how I can't speak in slang because I have hung out with "white folk" way too long. I will miss everything about her. She would always tell me how I was her favorite auntie... I wish I had told her how she was my favorite niece. I have lost my chance forever more and it breaks my heart.
She was obnoxious. She was loud and outspoken. You couldn't help but see her. You either loved her or you didn't. She was a drama queen but she would give you all that she had when she could.
We'll all miss you, Ebonie Rose Irving. You will be in our hearts forever.
