To The Family,
It's with great sadness to hear of the passing of your love one. We will truly miss Alvin and his happy spirit. When ever he comes to Mississippi, he would always come to visit us. Mama and other family members would reflect back on the years we lived by each other in the pasture. We would talk and laugh for hours. He was like a relative to our family. When our parents passed, Alvin called ever other day checking on us.
Our prayers for you today and every day is that God bless and comfort you during this time of sorrow. Much love!

To my family as we today have bowed our heads in grief, let us resurrect our faith and find peace from God. We are not there in person but we all share the same pain today , however we are there in spirit and love. When you feel down you can turn to God for all your needs. Remember God is not dead , nor does he sleep. Know that each of you are loved very much.
