Mr. Alston,
Remembering you and your wife. Thanks for being such wonderful neighbors. Praying that you have peace.

To Howard and Family, I remember meeting you and Daisy when I met the Williams family in South Carolina in the early seventies. My husband, Ray Williams, was so proud of her and her accomplishments and he loved his cousin dearly. I grew to love her too. Cousin Daisy will be missed, but I know she is resting in peace and I hope the family will be comforted and uplifted by the many wonderful memories she has left to cherish. We can remember her smile and hard work to keep the Williams Family Reunion going. Wishing you many blessing and in Love and In Christ, Cousin Connie Williams, Philadelphia, PA

To the Alston family,
I'm so very sorry to hear about Daisy. She was a sweet lady with a loving spirit. She and my mother, Dorothy Tobias Parker, were first cousins.

I was so sadden to hear that your mother had passed. I am so glad that I had the opportunity to be a part of her life when she was here in Hampton. Mr. Alston, Howard and Adrienne, know that God will guide you through this difficult time and I will be thinking of you all as well. Take care and God Bless.
