Rest in God's arms Mr. Nelson

My senior cousin was an affable and energetic personality. We all looked up to him in so many ways.Our youthful years were spent in adventurous and harmonious atmosphere - knowing our Gentle Giant (Buddy) a prominent protector was always around to dissuade any intruder.His athleticism was phenomenal and the many trophies and awards decorated his Mom's mantle piece. As we grew older he imparted his experiences and advice to guide his siblings and relatives. When left the shores of Guyana the void was felt by his many friends and relatives. We lost a fun loving man. We all have our strength and weaknesses . His sojourn on Mother Earth has ended, We pray that his love ones be comforted and his Soul Rest In Eternal Peace. Prince R.G. Pickering ( Maj retd).
