My brother, Terrence, Sweetpea, Jay, Peas, he had so many nicknames, all terms of endearment.

Before his passing, he asked me to personally thank all of you for being here, supporting his family, paying tribute, but most importantly for enriching his life. He loved your camaraderie, and friendships. He believed in the community
stronghold that indefinitely binds us together. For him I thank you.
