My Little/Big Bro. Always full of Ideas/Goals and a Heart ❤ to Give, literally. Although J.R. was a huge Guy in stature, He was a Big Ole Kid in so many ways. The kids in the Family loved him so & he was always ready to entertain them the most! I thank God for giving me and my Son Tijan the moments we had with him right before he left this Earth. We sat and talked, laughed, told stories and most of all, we broke bread together. I’m honored to say I was there. I plan to break bread with you again Bro, just not in this Lifetime. With that being said, save a seat for me at the Table up there so that we may eat again. I love you and miss you so much and although my Heart remains Heavy, I know that you have no more worries. Rest Up, Rest Easy and Hold it down Soldier! Until we meet Again, Your Big Sis 4 Life and all the nephews and Niece; Julius, Tijan, Elijah and Naj’i. We Love and miss you Always
