“My heartfelt condolences to my oldest nephew, Franklin (Jr.) Hale. We shared the same age and grew up more like siblings, yet you always honored me by calling me Auntie Annette. I never imagined that our time together in September would be the last, but I am grateful for the moments we shared. Your presence was a blessing, and you will be deeply missed. Rest in peace. Love always, Auntie Annette.”
