Orenthea James "O.J." Akins

It's been a month and it still doesn't seem like you are gone. The truth really does hurt. Juice, I know you are smiling down on all of us still, wanting us all to go on... it's hard. Alike your many family and friends I miss you terribly. You and the memories that we all were blessed to have shared with you, will never be forgotten You are a wonderful spirit, may your laughter and "sunshine smile", always carry on.

I HAVE KNOWN "JUICE" ALL OF MY LIFE(20+). HE WAS PRACTICALLY AT MY HOUSE EVERY SUMMER WITH MY BROTHER, GREG. HE WAS APART OF OUR FAMILY AND WILL BE BE MISSED SO MUCH. TO THE FAMILY AND FRIENDS MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU. JUST REMEMBER "JUICE" IS WATCHING US AND HAS NOT STOPPED SMILING.

I'm deeply mourning "Juice's" passing. I was unable to attend his memorial services, however I would like to acknowledge the many fond memories that we shared, all full of laughter. He was a great smiler! From kindergarten and beyond, he was my rock, at times, I felt I was also his. He knew exactly what to say or do to make anyone smile. I'm truly blessed to have known him some 20+ yrs. I send my prayers and deepest sympathies to his many family members and friends. He was truly an angel and...

With Deepest Sympathy. Lillie Hinson

TO MELVIA AND FAMILY
MAY GOD GIVE YOU ALL PEACE AND
COMFORT DURING THIS TIME OF BREAVEMENT.

I am so sorry for your loss. O.J. was an exceptional person and a good friend to all he knew. He will be greatly missed by all.
Sincerely,
Stephanie Gaston Driggers
