Not sure what to say?

I’m so sorry that I never met my grandmother’s (Fannie Cheek) nephew Dr. James Cheek. My aunt who we called Sister graduated under her uncle’s leadership in 1966. I would love to be reacquainted with my family after all these years. RIP Sir Cheek.

I am the son of Heslip (Happy) Lee. My father worked with Dr Cheek and his brother King at Shaw University from 1966 to 1968. I remember Dr Cheek as a forceful figure who's efforts at the University will never be forgotten. If King Cheek sees this, I'm asking tht he give me a call. Glenn Lee at 404-408-5345.

May God bring comfort to your family at this time of sorrow. Dr. William Brown, Jr., and family.

I am keeping you and the family in my thoughts and prayers. Dr. James Cheek will be greatly missed. God Bless You.

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