I dont know what to say..been crying most of the day...you are my big cuz and its hard to just reflect on what once was. Its hard to just look at pictures and remember what was on our minds, but if we could see you now we would have no choice but to rejoice because living with God, we know you are doing just fine. Remember when you and I would collaborate with poems...lol...we were going places right...we would say, Today...night clubs...Tomorrow..Def Poetry Jam..LOL...boy those were the days. I have each email you sent me, even when you just said, What Up!...You are more than my cousin, you are my brother...you always told me how proud you were of me. I still have that picture you wanted me to ship to you...somehow I gotta get it to Auntie Barbara...you know its big, so help me out on ideas...I know you get my emails, because I feel you when I'm down, looking over me, protecting me, making sure nothing bad is around...my big Cuz/Brother i am selfish alot, trying to get better and praying for release, so that we can do you would please you instead of our constant grief. I love you. thats an understatement. I miss you. Unimaginable pain. God Loves You. Greatest Love Ever...so thank you for being my blood, you will never be forgotten. OH, Rap has your favorite drink, Disaroni, he wont let anybody drink it either..lol...everytime he picks it up, he says.. Man, you a funny guy! Ha Ha Ha...I will never forget your voice and that laugh. And Andrew is the bomb...he has made so many people proud and I know you are responsible for that...Thank you cuz...until we meet again!

My Dear, dear nephrew memories Oh!! how they linger. I miss you so very much It's been a long hard year without you every family function we try to carry-on without you I always sit in silence thinking of you pictureing you being there, waiting to hear that hearty laugh of yours only to snap out of it to realize you're now with Jesus where you now run and not get weary. I miss you so much I visit you only be close to your earthly remains hoping to get just one more time with you. I have your picture made into a clock hanging right at the door, when I leave home each day I wave to you and tell you to have a good day in heaven. But when tomorrow starts without you here in flesh please know that in my heart you'll ALWAYS live.....yet there is that void. My nephrew, my heart, my love, my Buddy. Missing you always and loving you more. Aunt Delphine
