I was so very sad when I saw A.G.'s obituary in the Smithfield Times yesterday. A.G. was my friend and classmate beginning 4th grade at Clarement Manor Academy and again at Surry High School. A.G. was very kind to me and I will always remember him. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to his family.

Mrs. Vicki, Reginald,Valeri and Gwen,
Our hearts goes out to all of you. Once again we must be reminded that God only loans our love ones to us. When God is ready , it is time for our love one to go to their heavenly home that is provided. Yes, it hurts and God knows all of us have shared the tragedies or just death itself. NOT EASY! God will continue to shower you with his compassion.

To My Friend, Reginald Harrison, my Pastor Rev. James Harrison and the family of A.G., My heart was saddened this morning when I went on line to view the obituraries for my mom but not expecting to see my friend of 30+ year's name in it. Wow, what a shock. I will always remember A.G. on the courts playing for L.P Jackson High School and his visits to my house with his dad, who was my dad's friend and fellow Gwaltney truck driver. A.G. was a great guy and I will truly miss him as my friend and fellow Virginia State University Statesman. Reginald, we have been together at the graveside of many friends to include your dad but today I know will be one of the hardest days for you, cause this is your baby brother. Know that my family is praying for you and your family to be even stronger in the Lord, for He will be your Comforter at this difficult time.
