June 24, 2016

To the Aguillard family, I am so happy to have known Mr. Calvin as a neighbor during my summers in New Orleans as a young girl. I remember him as a hard worker, he spoke his mind and he loved his family. It was so wonderful to know that I had a village in New Orleans while I spent time with family away from home in Atlanta as well as when I was at Tulane for college. The Aguillard's opened their home to me and my brother during those summers and I always knew I was safe playing on Alvar in the 9th ward. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Remember

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

Robin words can't express what you are feeling ( I know that you were daddy's little girl) through our conversations. Our heavenly father's knows just how much we can bear. Take your burdens to the Lord and leave them there , just trust in his word and hold on don't be afraid to hold on to God for he promise that he would take care of us. May your mom get the strength to endure what she can't change 62 years is along time to be with someone than all of a sudden he is gone. But know that he is gone to a better place, I know that she is strong in her faith. I will continue to pray for you and your family. Love you. Your ex co- worker.
