To Ronnie, Jr. AKA RJ

Although we had many differences, you know my heart goes out to you. If you ever want to talk about anything, hopefully you still got my numbers. I know that you will make it. You are just that strong.



Mr. Barnett was a kind man. Everytime he saw me he spoke sometimes for up 15 minutes but I never minded. His presence will be missed but he is now in a greater place then this. He is with the lord.
