I spoke to my brothers yesterday, as I always do, and we reflected back on our time in Pleasant Hill. Those were times when we all grew together and we knew that somebody had our backs. There were many of us, brothers and sisters, and the links that join us together are never broken.
Dap was a major player in the family and his energy and selflessness will be forever remembered.

My dearest sister Cheryl McBride.
I prayed a special prayer for you today and I asked God to allow his Holy Spirit to comfort your heart. Please find peace in knowing that you were a good wife to "Dap", and you remained his friend over all these years. Never was there any bitterness revealed in your kind, considerate and passionate heart, that is just not who you are. Cheryl, I admire you so much and I am sorry that you are hurting right now. It hurts me to see you and Jonathan sad. I am relying on the power of the "Holy Ghost" to help you in your time of bereavement. I have so many fond memories of you and "Dap". I remember Columbus, Ga. in that small but cozy trailer. Well "Dap" is no longer with us but we are grateful that we have our memories of him to warm our hearts on days like these.
Love you for life,
Your sister "Faye" and Jonte Renfroe

The Bond Between Father and Son
A father and his son
Are inexplicably bound,
And that bond isn't severed just
Because Dad's no longer around.
A son remembers his father's words,
His wisdom and his wit.
There's never a day the ever goes by,
When the son doesn't find a use for it.
And this is how the father lives on
Inside the heart of his son.
Although they were parted years ago
In this way the two live as one.
Jonathan,
I am so sorry for your loss and my heart aches for you. I remember just recently I asked you how "Dap" was doing. I could see the happiness in your eyes as you shared with me that he was doing so much better. I know that you had planned on spending some time with your "Pops", to watch some movies and just chill.I know that you are hurting right now and I wish as your aunt there was something I could do to ease your pain. Please know that I am praying for you and I am here for you.We have to continue to trust "GOD".
