Subject: Hi
I watched your interview and I cried. I remember seeing the marks on you and Pam's backs after being whipped with an extension cord. I feel guilty now as an adult because I never told anyone. I do realize that we were just kids and you told me not to tell anyone because if your parents found out, they would beat you more. I'm crying now writing this message. I remember making you a birthday cake because your parents wouldn't get you one. I remember Pam asking me to make her one for her birthday as well. I also remember the "city" kids threatening you and being jealous of you and your sister because they thought you had so much. Little did they know...... I remember the fire very vividly, but you never told me how it started. I didn't get to see you much after the fire though and I lost track of you. I had heard that Pam was sent to a foster home, but I didn't know where or why. You seem to have grown into a very confident, and spiritual lady and I'm glad for that. You are truly a beautiful person, both inside and out- don't ever let anyone tell you different. I want to read your book even though I won't be able to do it without crying my eyes out. You have probably forgotten all about me, but I will always consider you a true friend. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,
Sherri (Mace) Harsh
