Lamont, Reese and Jamal



Your dad was very special to me and I'll never ever forget him, he is a BIG part of my "life story book" he was so much fun to be with and he always put a smile in my heart and I'll never forget him telling me when you dance "you have to take your time" and he took his time as he taught me to slap my leg to the beat and just move my body, boy did we laugh on that one... When I dance now I still remember it and I do it when I'm out of breath still to this day. Your dad was a classy guy and he had a wonderful life filled with love surrounding him everywhere and you all just carry on and remember the good times with your dad because he is still with us in our hearts everyday...He will never be forgotten by anyone who was lucky enough to be loved by him.. I'm really sorry I couldn't be there with you all to say "see you as soon as god sends for me" but I will be with you three and your dad in spirit... If you ever need anything please do not hesitate to call...770-949-4013
