I grew up on 32nd Street. Across the street from the Sanders.
May the family find strength in Christ.

“Blue” made friends of everyone he met. I remember, as a child in Savannah, that he would “stop by for just a minute” to visit with my grandmother, Mariah. Sometimes he’d bring fresh fish or crab. And of course, he’d give us “a little change”. Little did I know he was actually family! It wasn’t until a few years ago when I was doing some family research that I realized that he was her first cousin! He was very generous and kind. He shared what he knew about our family, Savannah and Daufuskie. I am eternally grateful.
I wish we lived closer together so I could be with the family at this time. I send my love and prayers.

Miss Phoebe,
I'm sorry to hear about "Blue". I thought about you all often, after I moved away from Savannah. May GOD be with you always.
