Uncle Collis,

You were such an amazing man!
A loving husband to my aunt and a doting father to my cousins. You will be sorely missed. Thank you for the beautiful memories we have made over the years. I can't think of a time when you didn't brighten my day with a joke, kind word or prayer. You never let me leave your presence without a word from God and for this I am eternally grateful. Thank you for showing me what a "real" man looks like and how he shows up for his family or in your case a complete stranger.

Again, thank you for your love and attentiveness.

Until we meet again,

Love Always your niece,

Martinique

Dad started and ended conversations with scripture, so I will do the same. We are forever grateful for the generational curses he managed to break so that we could thrive in the generational blessings God has for our family:

Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do : for what things soever he doeth , these also doeth the Son likewise.'
John 5:19

At the father's death, he will seem not dead, since he leaves after him one like himself' Sirach 30:4

Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.' Proverbs 22:6
