Summary
In 2004 the company started down sizing. I heard my dad had a heart attack so I moved back home to help out. Not long after that my sister found out she had cancer, so I stayed to help with her. After she passed just stayed to help my other sister with my dad, he needed some one with him 42/7. So it has been a family thing one after another. My dad passed in 2021, so couple years later here I am, starting life again. This opportunity came along to apply for manager of Oak Crest. So maybe this will be a new start, a new beginning for me.
