  • "My mom's revenge"

    Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - This is a story is about my Mama. For a bit of back ground, my Mama was a true Southern Belle.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - She was raised by her mom and grandmother. Her father lived out his life after WWII in another state due to what the war did to him.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - My mama was very close to her mother's sister and her uncle that was married to the sister.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - I will call her Cecil for this story. Cecil did not have her own children so my mama was as close to her as a daughter.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - I grew up with these stories but mama hated talking about some things because she grieved her aunt and uncle when they passed away.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - My great aunt Cecil wrote the name of the recipients on the back of everything she owed.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - It was the southern way to do things. She did give some things to people prior to her death but most items were still in her house when she passed.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - My mama was tasked with giving everything to everyone. My mama was a very giving person.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - The problem was when people took advantage of it. Oh, Lord! They had no idea what my mother was capable of.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - When Cecil passed away, her late brother's wife, we will call her E, asked for the Cecil's car, and about ten thousand dollars to fix the foundation on her home.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - My mama gave these to her because she was family. I want to say she also received a bedroom set.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - So, my mama came over to aunt Cecil's house a few weeks after giving these things to E.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - To her astonished surprise, someone had taken everything out of the house. My mama knew there were only two sets of keys.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - She had one and E had the other. I was around 12 years old at the time.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - Mama demanded a meeting with E. I remember going over to Cecil's house and I went into the attic with mama.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - A little while later, E showed up with her granddaughter. So, the 4 of us were in the attic.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - My mama point blank asked her where was everything. My mama had a temper but she was a lady.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - So, she waited for an answer. E told her that her granddaughter need the other bedroom set for her college dorm.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - Still where was everything else? The couch, chairs, kitchen appliances, dishes. I mean there was nothing in that house.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - E did her best to tell mama in vague terms where things were. I remember thinking E was crazy stupid for stealing everything.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - She didn't really defend what she had done. She was caught and was almost ambivalent about it.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - This woman went to the same church we went to. My mama never spoke to her again.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - As far as I was aware, mama just cut contact off. I should have known my mama wouldn't let things go.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - Yes, she was a Christian and a polite person but she also was not going to let anyone steal from other family members.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - Last night my cousin told me the rest of the story! It was fabulous. E has a son.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - He raised horses. I am pretty sure he had money. So, why in the world E did this is beyond me.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - So E's son had a barn. That was where all the stolen items were kept. My mom called a company that picks up items and gives them to the poor.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - She told them there was a bunch of furniture and other kitchen items and whatever else they could find was theirs for the taking.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - All of the stolen items were picked up and given to people or sold to people.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - I would have loved watching their faces when they went to the barn and everything was gone.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - That is how you do it. E stole everything from family. My mama never got the 10k back.
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - I have no idea what happened to that beautiful car. All I can say is mama helped others by taking what E did and made sure she would never be able to use it!
  • Few_Echo7238 https://www.reddit.com/r/CharlotteDobreYouTube/comments/1pcgl11/my_moms_revenge/ - All this took place around 1982. My mama has passed away and E is gone too.
  • Gmoneyhoney1972 Your ma is EPIC!!!
  • OP Few_Echo7238 My mama always kept things classy. My mama was warned about E from hr mother. She was told not to turn your back on her. My grandmama was a very wise woman!
  • MadCityScientist But somebody is still sitting on that couch and having dinner at that table!
  • OP Few_Echo7238 I'm not sure if that's actually accurate. Because that couch was made from some kind of funky gold fabric. My great uncle loved the color yellow and gold. My aunt went to visit some relatives and Orangeburg, South Carolina. She must have stayed there a couple weeks possibly longer. Because when she came back, she had a whole new living room. Most people would love that but the fabric was not what we would call quality fabric. If you put your hand on it and you moved it quickly ba
  • anathema_deviced Please tell me she did a testament at church about Christian behavior v sinfulness with no names but just enough detail that errrrrrybody knew what E did
  • OP Few_Echo7238 So my mother did speak a lot in her Sunday school class. I was in my child Sunday school class but I don't know if she actually said anything about what really took place. I'm not sure how much longer E stayed at the church. The whole family knew what happened but they never talked about it openly. So when my cousin, she's my age, told me the second half of that story last night, I was laughing so hard because my mom could pull some crazy stuff. She was a master at hurting people
  • Particular_Cycle9667 Yeah, it was me, E would never have gotten a key to begin with.
  • OP Few_Echo7238 I really think mama gave her the set so she could get the bedroom set and the car. It was supposed to be temporary. We would visit this person fairly often before all this took place. That is why mama was so angry.
  • JGalKnit That is next level. Three cheers to mama.
  • OP Few_Echo7238 Mama taught me many things through out her life. She was a very beautiful woman inside and out.
  • redditt2104 When my Southern mom died we had to catalog everything before we were allowed to give anything away. But mom's friends came over "to get what your mama promised" (I knew better than that!), even bringing shopping bags. My daughter shook everyone down on their way out the door, and took things out of bags, purses and even tissue paper. She was shameless about it--"first my Nana dies, and now you're tryin' to get my mama thrown in jay--yul, you go home!!" I was so proud!!
  • OP Few_Echo7238 You should be extremely proud. People become so greedy that the lack the moral initiative nature of rescept!
  • Bluehexx116 Omg I love your mama! Is there any more stories about her? Also, may she rest easy knowing that E got her butt outmaneuvered. I love that instead of a feud your mama changed the game and won. She is Petty Queen!!!
  • OP Few_Echo7238 I have many more stories! She was a Trailblazer for sure! I honestly didn't think about all the comments coming from this post. I could write a novel about crazy family! There was a lot of love and a great amount of crazy too!
  • Prestigious_Badger36 The people who received those items likely appreciated them much more deeply that shitty E would!
  • divwido I was so hoping the charity people took a few 'extra' things. Surely the homeless can use these saddles and reins that we got for free!
  • MadCityScientist But somebody is still sitting on that couch and having dinner at that table!
