It saddened me to hear about Thaddeus. It had been years since I saw Thaddeus but I recently sat with Thaddeus at the repast of another one of Marshalltown's finest. We greeted each other with a hug; we laughed and shared pleasant conversation. We shared another hug as I left, he will be missed. Rely on your memories for they will get you through difficult times. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

To lose Mrs. Davis and three of my brother's in a short period of time is very difficult; but God makes no mistakes. I thank the Lord for the chance to have been able to spend some time with Thaddeus before he was called home. Thaddeus and I had a special friendship that I will cherish forever. He was the Jamie Fox of our crew and I will surely miss his quick wit and humor. Thaddeus made me laugh one final time when he called me, Ronnie, and Tremont our childhood name (Alley Rats). Rat, Hub Mac and Fish has made heaven a better place. May God Bless their souls. Wayne you have to be strong for your mom because she will need you at this time. Mrs. Crawford, God will see to it that the light will shine upon your family again. I'm very sorry I can't be there for Thaddeus's homecoming; but our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May God Bless You All.
