I love all of you. Can't believe this happened so fast. I consider each and every one of you as family. When I heard i was in shock. I was just down there not too long ago and seen y'all a week and something ago. I wish I could be there for y'all. Ely was an amazing boy. Had a big heart made me laugh a lot. He was truly a great person.
