Files on every family are stored here. Hopefully my family's records as well. I asked the lady at the front desk if I could see my family's files, but first I needed to show her my identification and date of birth to confirm I am who I I say I am. I can cover the identification but I don't know my birthday, it is not something that I thought to remember. I had to leave to call my brother and my birthday is June 8th, 1998. She handed me the file and it was pretty damn thick. my mother, Nardina Barrett, and father Robert Barrett, both pronounced diseases on March 25th, 2014. They were married for 18 years. Right behind my parents was my younger sister Fey, also pronounced dead on March 25th, 2014. Behind Fey was Melissa, the oldest sister, again dead on March 25th, 2014. my hospital records were behind their files, admitted on March 25th, But there was nothing about Joasie in the file besides the fact that she swallowed a pill and had to go to the hospital to get taken care of and a little bloody knee injury she got from too rough and tumble at a soccer tournament. There was a date for the beginimg of her life, but no ending anywhere to be found.
