It will be two years on December 21 and the word that I have is Life. Jennifer loved life. She loved hoodies and hats. Jennifer loved to make her own clothes for she was her own person. Jennifer would give you the shirt off her back. I know for she gave me hers. My daughter was beautiful and so full of life. Then came Emma, a beautiful baby girl who had all of her mom’s greatness. Although her life was short, Emma had a huge smile and oh my God, she loved her mom. Emma also had hoodies and hats. A big part of my heart and soul is gone but I know I need to go on for now. That is what Jennifer and Emma want and need. They need me to be here for my daughter, Brittney, and my new grandson, Jaylen. They light up my heart. I want to help on gun control. We need to make it very hard to get guns because I know how easy it is. There were so, so many guns and rifles in my home that I did not know about. I need to do something.
Tribute to Jennifer And Emma Morgan
December 15, 2011 By 2 Comments
I am so sorry to read your tribute. Like you there were many loaded guns in my home, around my children, that I did not know about. Luckily, I discovered the guns before any tragedy occurred. Unfortunately, I also discovered that there are no laws, where I live, about how guns must be stored around children. I, as a mother, have no rights in my own home to insist on safe storage. It has taken thousands of dollars and court intervention to stop the irresponsible behavior of my children’s father. Every state should have safe storage laws and child access prevention laws. It’s simply common sense. We all need to do something.
Sincerely,
Lynn B.
I struggle every day because I do not know why I did not know how many guns were in my home but I never entered my daughters space and had no idea the guns were in my home because i worked very odd hours and was gone most days and home late at night. I have no words for there is so much that races through my brain. These are thoughts I can not share for they haunt me for what was to happen to me and a part of me wishes had known. I am going to do what I can to help, I have no money but words can be very loud and I will start there.
