You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

Dear Brother, You have left us with so many memories. You always loved to work with your hands. You could build anything without looking at a blueprint, "gifted." Your passion was cooking. We believe you acquired that skill from our father who cooked for the Seaboard CoastLine Railroad for over 30 years. At times your food was a little too "spicy" but nevertheless we ate it. In your younger days you loved to hunt. You enjoyed going out in the woods carrying the family "shot gun" hunting all day even if you didn't bring anything home. You were what is called a "Jack" of all trades. Be it building something, doing plumbing work or just a mechanic, you could do it all. Now,the Angels who watched over you has ushered your soul to heaven to be with our parents, our sister and other love ones. As your siblings, we want to say we love you, and you will be missed. With Love, Kenneth, Queen and Mildred

Dad- I will cherish all of the memories that you and I shared. Being the only child was hard at times, but I know that is when the Lord carried us "like Footsteps in the Sand." I know that you are wearing your CROWN, with your legs crossed, at your new heavenly address. I'll always Love you Dad - Angie
