Paw Paw,
I just signed Darie's book and i want to cry so bad but the tears just won't fall. I miss yu. There isn't anyone that I can talk to. I am constantly reminded of yu (the Saints) and this song by Floetry. Its called Sometimes You Make Me Smile (but i think you know that already). I miss your smile Paw Paw. I miss walkin in the door and hearing you say "Whats up Ci". ily Paw Paw, forever and a day. Can't wait tilI see you again.

Its been two long years that you have been gone. Too long that I haven't been able to walk into the house and say "Hey Paw Paw" and to hear you reply "What's up Cee?" or "Whats goin on girly?" Too long that I haven't been able to watch a Saints game with you or just to sit down and try to find a movie for us to watch. Life seems to just past right on by. Senior year is here and its basically almost over. Its too late to make up for any of the mistakes I have made. I miss you Paw Paw.
Love you eternally,
Ciara

Uncle Doug, Uncle Doug. What else is there to say but I miss you with all my heart. Everytime I see a picture or someone talks about you it takes all of me to keep from crying. I loved you like a father. I just thank GOD that he allowed us to spend time together and left me with many memories including all the stuff we had to do for my Debutante Cotillion and that he let me see you before he took you home. ....there will never be another Unlce Douglas...no one can fill the shoes you left behind....I MISS/LOVE you soooooooooo much! Cant wait to see you again!!!

Hey Paw-Paw this is Dai.I know that I haven't wrote you in a minute.On fathers day I was like who could I call and tell Happy Fathers day to.You and my Daddy is gone.I wish that it wasn't true when my momma told me.But the lord took you in a good place.His home.There's no better place to die at then with the Lord.I remeber that exact day.I didn't cry but I asked the Lord why he took you and my daddy so early.I miss them Chirstmases when we use to go shopping.I miss them times when we would come and stop by on Fridays or any regular day.I miss you and Love ya.

Hi Paw Paw. You know, without you things aren't the same. It has taken me a while to actually build up the courage to come and sign your guess book. Its like, I am still waiting on you to come back from out of town. New Jersey to be exact. But in the back of my mind, I know I won't be seeing you for a while. Like I said, things aren't the same. I haven't even been back to church since that day that you departed us. I just would hate to have to bring myself back to the day. I had just walked out of church and my Nanny told me. I instantly started crying. Another loved one gone out of my life in no more than a year. There's this song by Floetry that reminds me of you. Its called Sometimes You Make Me Smile. We were listening to it one day in Atlanta, and I began to cry. June asked me what I was crying for, but I never answered him. I just figured that he would realize why sooner or later. You will always be loved and missed. I love you Paw Paw. And tell Uncle Wood he still owes me that driving lesson. Love You.

To The Durden, Gordon, and My Special Friend, Tonya:
It is so hard for me to fight back tears as I type, but I feel so very bad for not being there for you as I should have been during these tough times. I just saw Lisa and I she gave me the news. I can't beleive it. I came inside and called my mom to tell her. I told her that Lana and I were talking about you all not long ago and how I wished I could get in touch with you. My mom suggested looking here and sure enough I am able to get a contact. So sorry it had to be under these conditions. Douglas was such a loving man, it doesn't seem fair that all the good ones go home so soon. I'm speaking for my dad too. I was very young when he was taken, but he and the memories are still with me 25 years later. My prayer for you is that you will find a special comfort in your memories and that they will bring you closer to God's peace. They are in the hand of the Beholder, a place of rest, and a garden of peace. I know sometimes things can seem overwhelming and unsettled, just be confident and trust God's plan. Our roles may not be obvious to others or even to ourselves, but our faith tells us we all have a special role to play. We just have to pray for strength and confidence so when He calls on us we can play our part. I witnessed your father bring love and togetherness to your family,I'm glad to have that memory of him. Keep his legacy alive by staying together.
I love you Tonya and I'm here whenever you need someone to talk to. Max, Brenda, Rose, Del, Nic, June and I'm going to say Darrick too because he is here in spirit, you all are a beautiful family anyone around could see the closeness you share. Meeting you guys so young, I felt like you all were a second family to me. I will never forget times we spent in New Orleans. My paryers are with you all.
Love,
Donna Irving & Family

Damn Doug! I still can't believe you are gone. You are so missed by many. I am glad to have had that talk with you, and you were able to get some things off your chest. I know you are with "Wood". That is where you wanted to be as you told me when we last talked. "Musafa", is looking out for "Red" and keeping "E" in check. Rona and myself just left visiting "Red", we had a good time.
I know you are smiling down and very proud of your daughter. She misses you like crazy!!! She text me 2day to say she finally heard: Luther Vandross, Dance with my Father. U won't be able to walk her down the aisle for her wedding day, but as I said "Musafa" has your back, as you had his in the past.
Love Ya Dougie Fresh!

Hey Uncle Doug,
Yesterday u were on my heavy I just could not shake it. It was last night I had one less person to call and wish happy new year too. I just want u to know I am gonna make good on my promise, i am gonna pick up ur cross, and I will find what u were u were looking 4 and u know what i mean, i just still cant believe ur gone i was looking at some pics mawmaw had and saying boy u were a fool, and i just think of all the times u mad me laugh even when i didnt want to, i never have another person in my life like u and i thats what makes me even sadder,but u know whose taking this the hardest, just ask GOD to send him a sign that this was for the best,that ur ache was greater than the needed for us here and that why GOD called u in church that Sunday morning. Now all family functions are giong to be boring with no one to make us laugh and if we get mad with one another who is gonna get us to talk to each who is gonna be the bigger person, I could go on and on but I better not cause this could lead into hours, my heart hurts so much, but there is this song Yolanda Adams sings be blessed and it helps maybe i should let him listen to it because it "I feel like my hurt will never go away and U(GOD) promise to take care of me, and since I trust in U so I know I will be alright!!! I will keep u posted in my findins and when everything comes to pass I am gonna do the 2jig(like Bruce Willisat the end of last boyscott). i love u and i know i will see u in the rapture and thats relief for and know everthing is about to come to pass I CAN NOT WAIT
