My thoughts and deepest condolences go out to Gucci’s family .I know its hard to think of right now ,but our loss is Gods gain… and he does not make mistakes! David was such a wonderful friend and an extraordinary person. He will be missed by so so many. Gucci was my rock thru some hard times in my life and I am so blessed to have known him. He touched and helped out so many people in the short time he was on this earth. He has left me with some great memories…and although I will not be able to see his body or hear his voice, I know that he has not gone anywhere. He is still right here with Chad, watching over us and leading us thru the right paths. Just remember that god will never lead you to something he will not carry you thru. RIP Gucci I love!!!

A cousin that I never got to meet, but only recently saw in a picture at his grandmother's house, my cousin Ida Thomas. At the time I had commented on what a handsome young man, hoping to meet him one day. Now, that day will never come, as his life was taken away so quickly in a senseless manner. However, the memories that will be shared by his loved ones will forever keep him alive in our hearts.
