To Byron, Gilbert, Vanessa. Andrea,
I knew you all from the neighbohood, and treasured memories of my different interactions with all of you, including the twins.
To Alvin's longtime friend, Betty, along with you all, I know you will miss your big brother and mate. I can see him smiling. May you be comforted by the good memories you shared. Peace be with you all.
