Hello April, it was drug related. However,her death was not completely caused by the drug use. Her death was deemed accidental by the coroner. The main cause of death was polypharmacy, which is the excessive use of too many prescription medication...
I worked with her at Moores Pharmacy in 96' I think. I talked to her briefly about a year ago. I had NO idea she was suffering from cancer. It breaks my heart because I remember her always having a smile and such a sweet heart! When we chatted she...
I am so deeply sorry for your loss. I remember you and Jeff from school. It's hard to know what to say. I do know things happen in life sometimes that we don't understand and we do not deserve. Just keep praying and hold on tight. That baby is in ...
I live in Santa Rosa Beach, just east of Destin. I am married to Jeff Hatten from Houston over 9 years. We have two kids. Kendal is 8 and Coltin 2.
I enjoy the family life very much. I work for a real estate office and my husband builds.
Life is a beach! :) I do miss Alabama sometimes.
HEY GIRL! I AM PLAYING ON COMPUTER AT WORK AND NOTICED YOUR SPACE ON THIS SIT. YOU HAVE A PRECIOUS FAMILY AND I HOPE THINGS ARE WELL FOR YOU ALL.

I don't think she told anyone on here....there were alot of others who knew because they went to church with her, etc. But she didn't want to talk about it on here. This was a place she could go to and talk to people and not have to talk about her health and have people constantly asking her how she was doing...so I guess it was like some sort of escape for her. She fought it hard...this time last year, her dad and stepmom took her to the cancer hospital in Houston....to seek a 2nd opinion or maybe different treatments....only to be told what her doctors were doing here would be what they'd do there for her. In other words, there was nothing else to do that wasn't already being done. I haven't seen her in a few years, just reconnected with her on here. At least she doesn't have to fight anymore.
Yea it is very sad!! But she fought that terrible battle almost 2yrs. They had her memorial service this past Saturday, but I was unable to attend...but my mom went for me. She said the church was packed but she was able to talk to Andrea's mom for me. I really feel for her 5yr old daughter, Rebecca. Last time I heard from Andrea was around Christmas and she told me the cancer hadn't grown and then I quit seeing her name in the weekly church newsletter...so I guess, even though I knew it was incurable, I thought maybe she was doing good. I guess not.
yes, we are really excited. we found out last week that we are having a girl. we are both doing really good, although it's a little tough right now because we are only an hour away from the beach and the weather is so nice, but we have so much stuff going on we haven't even been able to go yet. how are you doing?
Hey girl! Thanks, they grow up so fast. I guess its time to have another one huh?, lol j/k daycare is too expensive. How are you? I thought you were moving back to bham.
Hey Sweetie,
Thanks for the email and I have many pictures of Steve, you and your Mom. Only problem is I have to find them. Soon as I do I will send them to you.
I did know Pam very well but did not know that she had died. I did know of JoJos death and what a slam bam. So sorry for your loss, I know you two had a great relationship.
Stay happy and healthy,,,I will find some photos. Just don't know when! keta
Yes, you were very young. When your parents divorced it really rock your little world. Everything you knew to be safe, love and true was turned up-side down. I can understand you not really remembering Steve but let me assure you Steve loved and adored you. You and Mitzi were what he had been longing for. Ya'll made him so happy and so complete. You and Julie wore him out playing on the floor, swinging you around and riding on those big broad shoulders. He loved taking you two rug rats and Rod Jr. to movies, zoo etc. For him he had found his happy home.
You are right Julie and Tony are doing wonderfully.
Hey sweetie,
Of course I remember you. You were my neice for awhile. I think you were about three and you sang a song all the time. Torn Between
Two Lovers or Telephone Man,,help me out.
You have a beautiful family and I am so happy for you. Stay strong and love them with every breath you take. If and when you are in the area, call,,we all would love to see you. Love, Keta
