Elijah James Gamble, Sr.

SIR
Tomorrow marks another Birthday without you here... and tho it's been a few years the ache in my heart has yet to fade

Thank you for Loving us and for being our all on all after we loss Mommma.
Thank you for the life lessons...
For demonstrating character of a Man... ...

In this moment I can imagine you giving me one of those hugs and telling me "Hey baby, we going to be alright. I know it's hard & this hurts but you got family so you ain't never alone. Just call me baby, you know your Unc always got you. I love you baby." I know because you've done it before & you've always been there for all of us & you were truly there with Ma until the end.

He was my Big Brother. Someone that was always there for me my entire life... he game me my firsts of many things as a kid. My first bike, my first savings bonds line before I even knew what they were. He always looked out for me. He taught me to appreciate Art! Which was my reasons for college. We talked on the Fone for Hours when we spoke often, we loved one another as close brothers do! We always thanked our mother in our conversations for bringing us up the way she did to become the good...

My deepest sympathy to Elijah's family. He was such a nice man. I met him when he worked with my husband at Birkmire's. I truly enjoyed talking with him. He will be missed.

My condolences to the entire Gamble family for the loss of both Elijah and Loretta unfortunately on the same day. I met these lovely people through my friendship and working relationship with the late Georgia Gates and Larry Gamble. My thoughts are with you.

My condolences to you Elijah and your whole family. We worked together at Supportive Living Services for years and you shared many family stores with Robin and I. My thoughts are with you.

My deepest sympathy for your unimaginable loss of both Elijah, Sr. and Loretta in the same day. I had the pleasure of working with Elijah, Jr. for years at Supportive Living Services, and meeting Loretta while we were both recovering from knee replacements at the LECOM Senior Living Center.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
