My Friend,
You quietly slipped away from me. I know you are in a better place. I met you in my youth, my mail carrier who became my friend and was always there when I and my family needed you. I called you this pass Thursday and waited for you to call me back because you didn't recognize the number. Now I know why you didn't call me back.I remember all the good times and when you found your home on Fulton, and so many more pleasant memories. It's all good my friend. Rest in the Master's arms for there is no better place. Until we meet again! To the family, may God's Peace and Comfort consumed you beyond understanding!
Godspeed!
