      Once, But Never Again

      By Wanda J. Burnside

      My life was blessed growing up in a home with parents who were loving, caring, respectful and honest. They served in ministry and lived honorably. My father, Elder Minor Palm, Jr., was a preacher and Bible scholar. Mama, Evangelist Willie Lee McCann Palm, loved outreach ministry and helping others. They sought the ways of the Lord in what they did in our family, community and everywhere.

      Daddy and Mama cared about us, their three children. I’m the oldest; Rodger, my brother, is next and Regina is the baby. We were a close family of five. Our parents lived by example and taught us the ways of the Bible.

      In 1950’s into the 1970’s, we went to public schools and lived in a lovely home in Detroit, MI. Daddy worked and Mama stayed home caring for us. We had our home chores and did our homework assignments. We grew up going to Sunday school and church.

      Back then, we were sent to the store to purchase food or things from neighborhood stores. However, on a hot summer day in 1962, when I was 12 years old and my brother Rodger was 10 ½ years old, my parents drove us to a supermarket to shop.

      Wanda, go in and buy baking powder, milk, bread, and chocolate chips, Mama said as Daddy parked our big car.

      Okay, I said with a big smile.

      Can I go? asked Rodger. Mama said yes. Regina wanted to go, however, Mama said no.

      Rodger and I got out of the car. Mama handed me the list and money. Hurry back, Mama said.

      We ran to the market and I got the shopping cart. I’ll push it, I said to Rodger. What should we get first? I asked him.

      The milk! It’s over there, Rodger said. I’ll get it! He ran and got it then put it in the shopping cart.

      Thanks, Rodger, I said. Now, we need…the bread. We walked past a few aisles and then we stopped when I saw the baking items. Rodger, get the bread. I’ll get the baking stuff.

      I turned the cart down the baking aisle. I got the baking powder then looked at the list. We needed the chocolate chips.

      I went down the candy aisle. I slowly pushed the cart… and…I saw some Reese’s
