Irv and I graduated from FAMU and both of us ended up in LA working. My wife remembers him once commenting that, "The thrill is gone", at a dinner one night referring to our marriage. If he were alive today, I would tell him we just celebrated our 50th. He was only kidding. One day a FAMU business can to my office in Tallahassee looking for an internship. Little did she know that her father and I were very close friends. Of course she got the job. . . And yes, she was very qualified. Hello Dominique. Many fond memories of you and your dad. He was indeed special.

To Angela & Dominique and family-- May Irvin rest in peace and we pray that all of the great memories of your wonderful father will comfort you during these difficult days. Irv was more than our CPA, but we all considered him as part of our family too. We will miss him so much. May God be with you today and always. Your Dad loved you so much and each time we talked or stopped by to visit, he spoke so fondly of you both.
Love and peace always & forever. Cheryl Miller (Atlanta), Marcus, Sekou & Charles Waddell (Arizona).

To Dominique and the Family,
Our deepest sympathy to you all. Irv was a dear friend. He was supposed to come see our play, "VOICES", while I was in LA but he didn't make it. I will inform Dr. Mobley and the others at FAMU/SBI. He told me you were working outside the US and we had planned to get together soon. Love you all -- Clint & Beverly Byrd ([email protected])
