Lester Ford

FORD Lester "Jaybird" I would like to express my sincere thank you to Albany Community Hospice. To all the staff, no words can express how grateful I am to have had you by my side. Thanks to Northeast Home Medical Equipment for providing me with whatever I needed in such a timely manner. You all made a difference in his life, and my life as well. You prolonged our time together. You are the best and may God bless you all! Also, I would like to thank my daughter Mercedes for being my right hand. You stepped to the plate (your Grandmother would be so proud of you), Anthony Farrow for being my left hand, my sister Janice for being our backup person, and my husband James for his moral support and encouragement. Thanks to the Reverend Melvin Brown for the words of encouragement and keeping me calm, the Sojourner Truth AME Zion Church family, and Garland Bros. Funeral Directors. Thanks to my co-workers (program accounting), and Johnsie Ingram for everything you have done. Thanks to my Masonic family and friends for all their love, support and words of comfort. Finally, I give thanks to God for carrying and guiding me through such a difficult time in my life. Mom, I thank God you prepared me for certain challenges in life. I love you all. Sincerely, Retha M. Brown (Special Niece)
