My heart felt condolences, sympathy & love to my Aunt Naomi, Uncle Gordon, Cousin Tonya, Andre, Shelia & the rest of the family. I was just talking to my cousin Tonya about how I remembered Cassius coming by to see my mom on Midway Ave. when she was living, once sometimes twice a week. She enjoyed seeing her nephew holding casual conversations & ensuring the Cassius ate & was truly safe & ok, along with my dad's corny jokes. Cassius was so relaxed with my mother & he always had that great big beautiful smile as they sat & talked. Those were the days & times that I miss. Family, I know that right now our emotions & feelings are unsettling with the hurt of losing a child, brother/loved one, but as time goes on, the pain eases and the memories become more vivid & frequent to where we can smile/laugh about all the memories and good times spent. Know that Cassius is in a better place & he no longer suffers. We all will keep Cassius alive in our hearts and memories as he will be truly missed! May God bless, comfort, protect and watch over the Gordon & Wright family to see us through these difficult times.
