    1. Re: [AL-PIKE] T-bone steaks & Yellow Roses
    2. Doris Buffum
    3. God Bless you Randy Stewart. You are my angel. I lost my husband of 53 years ,a year ago next month. I was having a really bad day until I read your message on the Pike mailing list. I know there are angels among us and our loved ones send them to help us. On Vantentine Day of this year I was in Winn Dixie and upon seeing all of the flowers, cards etc, I couldn't control the tears or the ache in my heart. The poor young manager didn't know how to console me, and the more that I tried to controll the tears, the more they flooded down my cheeks. In desperation , the poor guy reached on a shelf and got a stuffed animal and a small cake and handed it to me. I thanked him as best as I could and left the store hugging the stuffed animal. When I got in the car, I saw that the stuffed animal was a hound dog holding a heart in his mouth, with" I love You "written on the heart. My husbands hounddog Beau looks like the little dog. I know there will be those that will say this doesn't pertain to genealogy but for the sake of all of us that have suffered a loss please indulge us this one letter. I seldom interact with the Mailing List but in this case I felt that I had to. I feel that Randy wrote this letter for me.

The marker is not complete with all of Archibald's children. I will send it to you directly. Here are sources for Archibald if you do not already have them: Rev. M. M. Brabham, Mizpah, A Family Book: Including A Family Sketch and Else or Buford's Bridge and Its People, Ch. 2, Page 9. 1830 Barnwell County SC Census. 1 male 5-10, 1 male 10-15, 1 male 15-20, 1 male 40-50, and 1 female 20-30. 1840 Pike County AL Census, Page 396.

Archibald 67 SC, Rebecca 54, George 17, John 15, Esther 11, Caroline 10. 1860 Pike County AL Census. Archibald is not on the 1860 Pike County Census, and his son, John A. Brabham is shown as the head of the household, with Rebecca, Esther, and Elizabeth living with him. Cemetery stone placed by a descendant, but George Cornelius Brabham is missing from the list of children of Archibald and Rebecca, and dates are different than other sources. Hope this helps. My husband, William Schultz, is a direct descendant of Archibald through his son George Cornelius Brabham. I have sources for his siblings if you need them. Alexis

    1. T-bone steaks & Yellow Roses
    2. RANDY STEWART
    3. Here's to T-bone steaks, yellow roses and friendship. READ THIS!!!! and then reread it. Especially the last part... I walked into the grocery store not particularly interested in buying groceries. I wasn't hungry. The pain of losing my husband of 7 years was still too raw. And this grocery store held so many sweet memories. He often came with me and almost every time he'd pretend to go off and look for something special. I knew what he was up to. I'd always spot him walking down the aisle with the three yellow roses in his hands. He knew I loved yellow roses. With a heart filled with grief, I only wanted to buy my few items and leave, but even grocery shopping was different since he had passed on. Shopping for one took time, a little more thought than it had for two. Standing by the meat, I searched for the perfect small steak and remembered how he had loved his steak. Suddenly a woman came beside me. She was blonde, slim and lovely in a soft green pantsuit. I watched as she picked up a large package of T-bones, dropped them in her basket.. Hesitated, and then put them back. She turned to go and once again reached for the pack of steaks. She saw me watching her and she smiled. "My husband loves T-bones, but honestly, at these prices, I don't know." I swallowed the emotion down my throat and met her pale blue eyes. "My husband passed away eight days ago," I told her. Glancing at the package in her hands, I fought to control the tremble in my voice. "Buy him the steaks. And cherish every moment you have together." She shook her head and I saw the emotion in her eyes as she placed the package in her basket and wheeled away. I turned and pushed my cart across the length of the store to the dairy products. There I stood, trying to decide which size milk I should buy. A Quart, I finally decided and moved on to the ice cream. If nothing else, I could always fix myself an ice cream cone. I placed the ice cream in my cart and looked down the aisle toward the front. I saw first the green suit, then recognized the pretty lady coming towards me. In her arms she carried a package. On her face was the brightest smile I had ever seen. I would swear a soft halo encircled her blonde hair as she kept walking toward me, her eyes holding mine. As she came closer, I saw what she held and tears began misting in my eyes. "These are for you," she said and placed three beautiful long stemmed yellow roses in my arms. "When you go through the line, they will know these are paid for." She leaned over and placed a gentle kiss on my cheek, then smiled again. I wanted to tell her what she'd done, what the roses meant, but still unable to speak, I watched as she walked away as tears clouded my vision. I looked down at the beautiful roses nestled in the green tissue wrapping and found it almost unreal. How did she know? Suddenly the answer seemed so clear. I wasn't alone.
