I am so saddended by the loss of my friend, Colbert. I met him some years ago when he did some work for me and we became good friends. He came to my 'rescue" many time, and always treated me more than fairly. We looked out for each other! Fortunately, Colbert called me a month or so ago, and I only wish I could have seen him to tell him how valuable and true a friend he was.

To Linda Jackson,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I will miss my uncle very much. He always had alot to say about politics and people. He was always willing to help others in anyway he could and if he couldn't he would rig it up to make it work. That was my uncle. My uncle is now in the hands of God and will forever praise His Name.

To the family, I am so sorry for you loss. Mr. Drake was a very nice man and always willing to help someone in need. He was a great help to me by doing odd jobs around my home when I lived in Virginia Beach.
