Daddy I love you so much. I could not have asked for a better father. You were always there for Precious and Deana. So many times you have rescued me from situations. Daddy I know you're in a better place now and your pain free. You are the strongest man I've known for 57 years. You battled with sickle cell and you never let it hold you back or use it for an excuse.

Raymond Prather,
You touched the lives of so many. Showing each of us what strength and courage is about. In times of pain, your spirit was strong, filled with the determination to continue. Never complaining just taking each day one day at a time. Then came the day when God called you home.
Your footprints are in the hearts of those blessed to know you. Your love will always be remembered. You have Deana singing Michael Jackson's "Man in the Mirror", she says, "that is...

These moments are very difficult and words never do justice to the light that is extinguished, but you do find the inner strength to go on. It is the strength of the laughter you shared, the good times and the learning times,...

To Boo
In the 1940’s a chain was forged with a band of brothers known to all as Micky, Paul and Boo. Fifty years has since past during this passing of time there has been many trials and tribulations.
However yours has been the worse with sickness and health. I have felt your pains and worries and I can only hope that you thought of me as a good brother. The bond of brotherly love was always strong if only in hearts and minds. Distance and non-visual still could...
