First Id like to say thank you for all the prayers that have been sent to his children and family.

Well Andre, Happy Valentines Day my love as we all come together today to see you one last time and to give our love. I know you know how hard this is for me and the kids but I know you have faith I will be strong for them. I am still waiting for you to come through the front door everytime it opens so I can say it was all a dream. But I know that isnt happening and I am so saddened by the fact the kids have lost an awesome father. I promise to guide them,raise them and love them as we would if you were here. As heartbroken as I am, I am happy you are not suffering anymore from your health issues that caused you so much pain day in and day out. It truely hurt that I couldnt take the pain away or help make it better as I always tried. I will never forget all our years we had together. I wont forget that big koolaid smile you had, the love in your heart, your generous ways, and most of all the love you had for your children. We will cherish alll our memories we had with you and we will never forget you. I may have not said it enough but you were always there for me and the kids and I am greatful for that. And although we had that love/hate relationship I always loved you regardless and that will live on forever. I know your home now at ease and enjoying your mom, grandma, uncles and others in heaven. So I know your well taken care of there as well. You had a heart of gold and always kept us safe. We love you Daddy!!!
Until we meet again... Love Nicole, Kiyara, A.J. and Juliana.
