About this title

About the Author

My name is Ricky Andrews. I was born on 6/19/67 in Memorial hospital. My mother's name is Terriceta Andrews. My father's name is Thomas Edgar Thomas, Sr. At the age of 1, I moved to Statesboro, Georgia in Bulloch County. I grew up there until my father died of a heart attack. Then we moved back to Savannah, Georgia. At that time I was 7 years old. My mother raised me the best she could to do right. She never remarried. My father was a good hard-working man and a faithful man to my mother. So after his death, Mom decided to be the mother and father to her 5 children. Jesse Brown is the oldest Elizabeth Holmes is next to the oldest, Thomas Andrews falls behind her, I, myself, Ricky Andrews falls beh ind him and my brother Antonio Andrews falls behind me. My mother took me to church and tried to install in me nothing but good, even though I got a chance to know the Lord. It was a great feeling. However, I still got side tracked and started hanging in the neighborhood with the guys that was doing the wrong stuff. I must admit, I was hard headed. I was trying to be the class clown in school. I lost out on my education. By the time I was 11 years old, I started trying to puff cigarettes. I didn't like those at that time because they made me choke. Eventually I went back to them and started smoking. By the time I was 15 years old, I was introduced to cocaine. I thought that was the best high I've ever had. After that I stopped doing everything that was good for me. I stopped going to school and church. You can actually say that I stopped caring about my future. I started getting into trouble with the law, going back and forth to prison.
