My condolences and prayers go out to the Bolden family. I saw Hiram at the Orange County Fair, last Saturday, he looked good. We laughed and talked about old times, especially when 'they' would mistaken me for him. Although, the time we spent together was brief, I realize how precious life really is. Hiram will truly be missed by the Bradley Family as well as his own.

To The Bolden Family; my family. We grew up together; we were the rat pack of our time. Flo-Flo, Hadew, Hiram, TT, Neicy, IEE, Marvin, Judy, and many more. We were always together; family & buddies for life. I live in Las Vegas now but my love is with the family. Yes, we are heart broken and forever sadden once again. It was hard enough letting go of Hadew, now the baby of the family. To the family, my love and condolescence. I feel your pain and Hiram will always be greatly loved. The Lord is our shephard, he brings us through & in time the lord will help us to move on but never forget how greatly loved Hiram was. Let us all give praise to God; let's get our house in order, praise him always for good times & sad times. May God be with you always. Love always, Neicy

Hiram this is one of your sisters, the sister that remembered the day you was brought home, I remembered that big smile. I wondered how can a smile be so big on such a small thing. I remembered the room on the right as soon as we came in the door, you was the only one I remembered coming home even-though it was more before . I can see still all those big whites all those big whites, even now. I am not worried, your with so much fam, you all will forever exsist. We are who we were, There is nothing new under the sun plus we are bey-bey kids. We dont die we multiply. Peace

As I sit here thinking all I seem to be able to say is WOW!! It was only about 5 weeks ago that i was in town and gave Hiram(George) as I often lovingly called him a ride. As usual he was being a comedian laughing and smiling. That is what I will miss the most his smile and his gentle disposition. To Annie, RC, James(I love You),Ricky, Jason,Adele, Barbara, Patricia, Ava and Flo-Flo my prayers are with you and for you. Words will never be able to discibe the whole of emptiness that's left in a family when you lose a sybling. Be blessed stay close to one another and trust God because he is the only answer to every single problem, heart ache, diappointment and pain.
Love Always
