Chapter 26: History of the Mormon
My mental notes of Matthew Brigg (history of the Mormon) included:
His mother: JoAnna Belle Martino-Brigg. She was fifty-nine years old, part Puerto Rican, and fell in love with an Irishman, Tristan Brigg, when she was nineteen years old. JoAnna adored her son and requested a visit from Matthew every few days. Upon those visits, he was given a chunky check for his living expenses. Sometimes, the checks were in the five digits. The two shared lunch or dinner together, a strong drink, and sometimes they watched a movie, dramas based on the novels she had written. Never did the mother and son disrespect each other. And never did they argue, being similar, of a certain liking for each other, and close, like a mother and son were to be, of course.
