To my little brother.
Even though I've sat in front of your casket for the last two days, I watched as the casket was closed, I even watched as your body was gentily put into it's final resting place. I can't believe that your gone, and can't bring myself to say good buy. I have no idea what it will take for me to believe this. So until this becomes real to me I'll only say that I love you and will see you later.

To my dear mother.
I know that Deon knew how much you loved him, but for 77 days, it was only proven again. You are the best mother that any child could wish for. We can and will get through this, some how.

Love Always
Londa

To the Spivey Famiy,

My sincere condolences to your family and friends,You will continue to be in our prayers
May the lord build you up where your turn down
May the lord strengthen you where you’re weak
Through out our lives we stop and wonder what dose it take
To see the Pearly Gates it takes the Lord himself to call you
Because he only calls the best.
