Maxine and Family,
So sorry to hear of CJ's passing. Haven't seen you in such a long time, but think of you often. Think of the good times and days with Tony. Miss him so much. We were not able to come to the funeral. We all were sick. Ron send his sympathy to you.

My heart goes out to all. My mom just called me to let me know about my cousins passing last Thursday. She tries to spare me from hearing bad news. So heartbroken. My condolences. I still think of my cousin Tony (Murphy) every day. I can recall many fond memories from when I was young, hanging out with Waddell and Carl.

Eric, I wanted to let you know I was thinking about you. You and I have been friends for over 25 years and we have always had such a rare closeness. I didnt know your father that well but, I did you so that makes him truly special. I may not be there physically but if you touch your heart I am sure you will feel me there. Our tomorrow's are never promised and though our loved one is no longer here there is one thing that can never be taken away and that is his love for you it will always be with you. There are times in life when we have to walk down that path where we feel a pain unknown to others but with that open your eyes and see that you still have the greatest of all gifts and that is memories of your father. So, I am hugging you right now with pure affection and love. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers always.

I grew up in the house next door to Mr. Carl and Miss Maxine. He was such an important part of my childhood. No one could ask for a better neighbor and friend. Thanks for watching out for me here on earth as I grew up, and I know you'll be watching out for me from up above. Love you so much.
