Love and prayers to all, especially to Patricia who was always his guiding light in the storm. Tione is at peace now, thanks be to God.

Via his son, Tyler, Tione was my "sweat and blood kin." He will always remain one of those unforgettable characters in my life. Despite our differences, among his last unsolicited words to me were, "let's pray," and on that we could always agree.
