Chapter 1: The Beginning

Who is Sammy Alle? You ask yourself. She is a one of a kind artist at the age of twenty-five years old. She's had more than enough of life's struggles growing up and now I'm here to bring you, her story that she wants everyone to know.

Sammy was born on June 5th, 1995 at Toronto General Hospital. She's the youngest of her seven siblings. That consists of two brothers and five sisters.

She was raised by her mother known as Van and her father wasn't present in her life, so we will not be welcoming him in this book. Not that she isn't against him in any way, it's just he wasn't there for her like her step-dad Wayne whose been a part of her life since the beginning.

Her family lived in Toronto for a while before her parents divorced. Sammy's step-dad let the whole family move in with him. The house was a one story brick/stucco house with an unfinished basement. He lived on a huge property that served his dad's business for ten plus years, before he passed on, and Sammy has no recollection of when he passed on.

Sammy's father became a heavy drinker at the time, mostly of beer. He would drink five plus of the alcohol day in and day out before he would fall asleep then wake up and start arguments with her mother Van whose also a drinker and smoker on and off with both. Eventually they moved out and left for a whole new town Oakville, Ontario where they would live for the next fifteen plus years of her life.

Sadly her sister Marty was hit by a truck when they were living in Pickering, Ontario. Marty lived in a wheelchair and could barely talk. Unfortunately, when they all moved to Oakville, she died tragically in a house fire, the home my mother Van bought. Marty was buried beside Sammy's grandmother who died of cancer.
