Big Ronnie, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your super talented son! I was so amazed when I saw him at Emery and found out he was the same young man that I remember running around the neighborhood years ago. The fact that he passed away on my son's birthday means that each year I will be also celebrating his life. I will be praying for you. I'm sure that Ronnie's mom was happily awaiting him when he arrived in heaven! Much love to you!

Saw Lil Wayne last night "WeasyFBaby"
words were deep. All could do was think about you. I am still in shock but working real harddd. Double Time. Really Quick.
Like you say, Watch Me Work or was it Let's Work.
I know your mother was waiting there at the gates, with Uncle Tony, Pluck, Ronnell, Granddaddy, and your cousin DUCK. I can just imagine how you are having an Endless Good Time in the LORD. Endless Everything, just like you like it.

Sitting stuck, dont know what to say or what to write. Mind baffled. But with a new lease on life, I am trusting that GOD will reveal. No worries.
Your life was a blessing to us and we thank GOD for it.
