ON SAT. DEC. 8, 2007, MEMORIAL SERVICES WERE HELD FOR MY SON KIRK PARSON. UPON ENTERING THE SANCTUARY I EXPLAINED TO THE LADY WHO, EVIDENTLY, WAS SEATING PEOPLE, THAT I WAS KIRK'S MOTHER AND SINCE MY HUSBAND IS CONFINED TO A WHEEL CHAIR WE WENT IN EARLY TO ENSURE SEATING AT THE END OF THE FAMILY PEW. SHE TOLD ME THAT THE FRONT PEW WAS RESERVED FOR KIRK'S FATHER STEP MOTHER, JANNA, AND THE CHILDREN . I EXPLAINED TO HER AGAIN THAT I WAS KIRK'S MOTHER AND MINE AND GABE'S ONLY OTHER CHILD, JUSTIN NEEDED TO SIT WITH THE FAMILY. AND HER REPLY WAS, "I'M NOT HERE TO MAKE TROUBLE, GO SIT SOMEWHERE ELSE" I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW HURT I WAS AND STILL AM. WHAT MADE HER THINK OF THE WORD "TROUBLE" ANYWAY? HAD SHE BEEN TOLD BY GABE OR COZY PARSON TO MAKE SURE I DID NOT SIT WITH THE FAMILY? I CERTAINLY WOULD NOT BE SURPRIZED. I WAS THERE WHEN THIS PRECIOUS SON WAS BORN, RAISED HIM, SPENT 6 WEEKS WITH HIM IN ROCHESTER WHILE HE WAS GETTING TREATMENT, AND I WAS AT HIS BEDSIDE WHEN HE DIED. MYSELF, MY OTHER SON, KIRK'S BROTHER, KIRK'S AUNTS, UNCLES COUSINS AND FRIENDS NOTICED THE RUDE WAY I WAS TREATED AND WAS ALSO QUITE UPSET ABOUT IT. I WAS AND AM GRIEVING THE LOSS OF MY SON, AND YOU JUST ADDED TO IT. YOU HAVE NO COMPASSION AND YOUR STAFF IS EXTREMELY RUDE WITH NO RESPECT, EVIDENTLY, FOR MOTHERS WHO ARE NOT "PROMINATE CITIZENS" OF THIS BERG!! IF YOU ONLY KNEW!! OH WELL, YOU DEFINITELY OWE ME AND MY SON AN APOLOOGY. AS WELL AS KIRK'S AUNTS AND UNCLES AND COUSINS ON MY SIDE OF THE FAMILY.

MOST SINCERELY,

JO ANN BOWEN (THE POET)
