Everyone has its beauty, but not everyones sees it. My beloved cousin, Ive seen your beauty, you were so funny,loving,& graceful, even on the dance floor,& a exceptional seamstress. You had a small leak, & it sank a great ship. We all have come into this hard world. And I know of only one easy place in it, & that is the grave. I will lay my eyes upon you for the last time, & then you will go & join your father(Ernest Newton Sr) & God. Tell everyone hello my cuzin, for we all will one day join you.
