To my soul man my Uncle Cornell. I am going to miss you. You were like a Dad to me when mine was not able to be here. I will always hold a place deep in my heart for you. Gone but not forgotten. I was blessed to have you here and still blessed to have you there looking over us. A leader, never a follower. Thank you for sharing your life. Love to eternity Uncle C. The lessons you taught us all will not be forgotten. I will feel you in Corinthians 13:4-8.
