My
Life and Times
~ Sis. Felichia Y. Imith~
I was born January 16th, 1970 in Omaha, Nebraska. It was a cold 27 degrees and that's probably why I didn't like to be cold!!! e
I was BLESSED with my AWESOME parents Pastors James E. and Barbara J. Wright-Smith!!
Later in life I was BLESSED with my "Bonus" dad, Mr. James "Jimmy" T. Siegh-Robinson and both of my dads was waiting on me in Heaven!!!
I was REALLY sad when both of my Dads left, but my Mom reminded that, because I had accepted our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, baptized in HIS Holy name, and live a Holy Life then and now-I'm in the midst of my JESUS and my dads, and my other loved ones-
I was educated in Omaha, Nebraska and Des Moines, lowa (where we soon moved to). I didn't like going to school, but Mom MADE me and I was GLAD she did because I graduated from Smouse Opportunity School in Des Moines, lowa!!
Then it was time for me to hit the workforce. I was employed by Link Associates and Hy-Vee Food Stores. Now, I don't know WHY some of those people said "I had an attitude
"Sometimes", © and they let me go, but what they didn't know was I wanted to be home with my Mom anyway e!!! Yet me sitting under Mom didn't last long because she had to work-so l joined some of my friends at Crest Services and we went EVERYWHERE!!!
"When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. (1 Cor. 13:11)
Now that I'm an adult, Life has began LIFING. Changes have been made and a "Heavenly SHIFT" has happened and now, I have to say "See Y'all Later" (No Good-Byes)!!!
I THANK EVERYONE for any & EVERYTHING that you also have done for me!!!
To Mr. Delbert and Melissa Buckman- thank you both for taking good care of me.
To you all, please continue to PRAY for my Mom!!
LOVE YOU MOM!!!
Waiting on me on the Other Shore:
My 2 Dads, My Maternal Grandparents- Mr. Osborn and Mother Louise Brannon, Maternal Great-Grandfather Bobby "Big Daddy" Wright, Uncle Jerry Brannon, and Uncle Marvin Stacy
Brown
I leave all my Precious memories to:
My Beautiful Mom Pastor Barbara J. Robinson, my Aunt Venita C. Lee, Four Uncles- Roger (Pang) Brannon, Carlton R. Brannon, Ricky (Ellison) Brannon, & Michael Brannon.
"Bonus-Aunties" - Overseer T. Stacy Brown-Wesley, Evang. Jewel Williams, and Bernessa
