Uncle mookie I still laugh at the time I came home and you had been by my house and I wasn't home. You left your business card in my screen door. The first thing I saw was Big Daddy Enterprise. If big daddy don't have it you don't need it. I think that's what it said, or similar to that . I know it made my soul happy. Cheered me up that day because I had a bad day . I called the number you wrote on the back and you answer the phone saying BIG DADDY!! I fell out laughing. You kept the family smiling and laughing. Your spirit was filled with goodness and your energy was good all the time. I know you wouldn't want us to be sad and down so I will continue to remember the good times we all shared with you. I love you unc! RIP

When I awoke this morning Don you were heavy on my heart. I called your number which you have had for the past decade and it was no longer working. Panic overcame me, as I called J Lounge with no answer so early in the morning then I googled your name and realized my friend had left me. The pics we took were taken 13 days before your passing as I stopped by because you wouldnt answer my calls. You told me that you knew I would show up if you didnt answer. I was in denial that you were as sick as you stated because you have been so strong throughout the years. Over the years you would joke about the list that I would be added to so I would be called in the event that you departed. Makes me wonder if there was ever a list... lol We shared so many memories, so many conversations and so many times I would get mad when you would say now I know your not going to like this but and you would give it to me exactly how I needed it. There is so much I want to say and I just wish my friend was here for me to say it. As much as I hated to hear the message Big Daddy is not available and Big Daddy will get back to you as soon as Big Daddy can and you would end the message with Big Daddieeeee. I love and miss you more than you could ever know and would do anything to hear you say Big Daddieee again. Gone play the numbers and pray for the strength of your family Audrey, Tami, Tamera, Diamond and the host of your family and friends that I know you touched their life as well. Gone but not forgotten. LaVerne

I'm so thankful and so blessed to have had this wonderful, humble, loving man as one of my uncles. The years of growing up with him were beautiful, always there when you need him and always full of laughter and love, and real wisdom. He would do anything in his means for you to help you if needed. I will forever hold memories of uncle mookie in my heart. He is another angel in God's Kingdom and his spirit lives on. Family love.. RIP LOVE YOU UNC!
