I am so sorry that we miss the homegoing of my Daddy's first cousin. He is Sylvester "Savon" Alexander (deceased 2007). Verna Alexander and Lilly Mae Alexander-Broussard are my aunts. I had the pleasure of meeting Lil Mae Mae at Tee's funeral last year.
I felt the love from her. I will keep her family in prayer.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Be comforted too with the promise from God at Psalms 37:9-11, 29 that will one day soon, become a reality.
