My Alford & Brown family, I am sorry for our lost, my condolences to each of you. As I lift our family to the Lord and praying that God grants us with serenity during this time I will remember cousin Dameon for the jokester that he was. As I remember his jokes they will forever bring joy to my heart and a smile upon my face with hopes that you too will do the same as that is what he would have wanted...so cry for now if you must but have joy in knowing that we all will see him again...I love you with my whole heart God bless you all.
