To my beautiful Aunt Dwendolyn and family:
I'm so sorry for your loss, but it also comforts me to know that he's with the King of Kings. Aunt Dwen, I can't even begin to imagine what you must be feeling, losing your best friend of 45+ years. My dear cousins, on the other hand, I know what your feeling and it hurts. I keep thinking about the good times in years gone by, while growing up and the last time I saw Uncle Alex at mommy's funeral. I will continue to pray for you all. I'm sorry I could not bring myself to come, its just to hard for me(mommy, Suzy and now Uncle Alex in less than two years time), I know you understand and I love you guys for it. Uncle Alex I'll see you and the others when we reach God's holy city! We will shout Hallelujah, our souls are free at last!
