It's been almost 7 months and I have not been able to write anything because I still have a hard time accepting that you are not here with us. Today would be your 45th birthday and it feels very strange. Rarely did we go more than 4 or 5 days without talking and if so, I would say that I am putting your face on a milk carton. You and your dad were the only people that called me Sis and you are both gone. You were not just my nephew but a son to me. Last Mother's Day you came to the house with flowers even though you were not feeling well. I smile when I think of you wanting something and I would say no and then you would start with but Sis oh, goodness and I would give in.
You always tried to see the good in people and situations and I'm trying more to do that because of you. We all miss you terribly but know that you are in God's hands and with your grandmothers, grandfathers, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
Ava looks more and more like you and has your spirit and happy personality. She was outside the other day looking at the sky and said that Pop Pop said he loves her and she had to go back outside to tell Pop Pop that she loves him.
I love you and miss you.

To the Family,
What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch. We may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.
I read a quote before that said: There is no foot too small that it cannot leave an imprint on this world. This is very true of Pooch. I met Pooch through Trena and Tiffany Brown. Pooch and I just clicked the first time we met - and our relationship grew over the years. He would call from time to time, I would write him letters and he would write me back he always put a smile on my face. He thought his Auntie was pretty damn special and I thought very highly of him.
I have very few family members left outside of my siblings. I have lost my parents, grandparents, great grands, great aunts and uncles, and my beloved brother. It took some time, but one thing I have learned is that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. I pray that we all find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared them with Pooch.
Pooch was a good guy, a great friend. He was respectful, loving, caring, and he was kind. He was a good father and I am so thrilled that he found a happiness with you Marquetta. My condolences to the family and his friends during this season.
To his children, the loss of one's parent marks one of the most profound rites of passage in our life. Remember, no matter wherever he is, he'll always be watching over you. To Sandra and the rest of the Dantzler family, I am praying for your comfort.
It is never easy finding the right words of comfort for someone's loss, especially if it is someone close to you as well. There are no words to tell you how sorry I am. Please know that you all are in my prayers.
Love knows no boundaries. While Pooch is no longer physically with us, his spirit is always around us and he is with Ms. Dorothy, Bernadette, Sweetie Pie, Jimmy, John, and Joe looking down upon us until our number is called.
Heartfelt,

To the family,
I was so shock to hear about poochie passing, I remember him as a handsome, and nice young man from the south at his second mom, aunts house. I'm so honored that poochie and I were able to hold great conversations at berns 50th birthday party and at trena Christmas eve gathering. I'm truly going to miss him ok. he would tease me I love some Linda and I would tease him yes I'm your wife second wife and we just laugh and talk about old times very respectful. But with that said you know your loved and will be missed.
Love
