The Greatest People I’ve Ever Meet
Mama Hite and Papa Hite is what I would call them. They raised me and showed me how to speak English. Made mac and cheese with hotdogs and somehow my ketchup always got
mixed in with my hotdogs, but I still ate it. Papa Hite would always get his butterscotch candy. I guess that’s why I became such a big fan of it. As well as apples with peanut butter, but not any apple, no green apples. Heaven gained one of the greatest souls I’ve ever met. I love you with all my heart Papa Hite, I know now you are in a safe place and with Mama Hite. 💖
