Delores and Cassie, I was saddened to hear of your loss. I remember Natille as a young Hillcrest boy so full of life. He always had a twinkle in his eye and a good word for his little sister. You both are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss. Tee was a wonderful young man and he will truly be missed. My son Alex Black was one of his best friends - they had known each other for the past ten years. Tee was such a pleasure to have around and that group of friends - Tee, Alex, John, KJ, and Jake - had so much fun together. It just won't be the same wihout Tee. God bless you and be with all of you in this time of sorrow.
