Anthony and Family,
I met you and your mother at the old Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, when you were a very small child. I remember all of the conversations that we had trying to uplift each other. Your mother did a great good raising you, so, be strong and remember all of the things that she taught you. With deepest sympathy.
