and did not see her. when i got out of the clan, i knocked on her door and she opened the door and her arms and hardware open. i knew that i had been on a long and crazy journey, but i was home. she has passed away, now. she passed away at 103, two days before her birthday. i thank god that i was able to reunite with her before she passed away. i'm a mississippi boy, raised by black lady. i ended up in the clan. >> i made some of my best friends from people in the clan because i have been around people -- it's a long young child, of different backgrounds.
