He asked us to get rid of the mattress. He's like, "I can't go home to that. I don't want to see all the blood." And
00:00:12
here I am, 20, 22. Now, as an adult, I'm like, "Wow, I can't believe he asked us
00:00:17
to do that." But I just kept going and I kept wanting to make sure he was okay. >> How did you get rid of that mattress?
00:00:24
>> We took it in the back of a truck and we burned it in the woods. He wanted us to get rid of everything.

It's like he wanted her erased. All my sister's clothes. We had to go down to the thrift store where they
00:00:44
donated the clothes and I had to get clothes for my sister to bury her in. My mom loved that dog and my dad got rid
00:00:56
of him right after my mom died.
