Not sure what to say?

Words couldn't capture the essence of the love I have for you dear uncle. You touched many lives, but I am especially grateful.

In the absence of my own father, you assumed that role along with your brother (my grandfather) and showered with me with love, support and guidance that has stuck with me to the moment in which I write this.

For this I thank you and will always keep you alive in my heart!!!

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Mr. Parnell. He was truly a fine gentleman who always kept God in his heart, and his memory will always live in me. Please accept my and my family's heartfelt sympathies. Aloha.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Please remember to celebrate the life of Mr.Parnell Morris,Sr as he has brought much joy and laughter to each of you.

May God bless all of you,

Ruthie Martin
