In the truck I asked my dad where mom was, and nothing. It was that way all the way to my Granma Wood's house. Everything was silent, and then dad said he needed to tell us something. then all of a sudden I couldn't believe what I heard him say. Mom passed away. I ran over to him crying my eyes out.
