Although it has been many years and we were just "play play" cousins in the beginning on Minnie St., you all are still family to us and we are extremely saddened. I cannot say it any better than all of the lovely comments and scriptures. God Bless and keep you.

I would like to first express my condolences to Black's Mom. Mrs. Barbara, you raised a beautiful person, and the earth will be just a little bit more sorrowful, now that his wonderful presence is gone. To Christy, queen be blessed of the time GOD gave you with Black, and most importantly, hold your head up and continue to be the strong and wonderful, mother that you are, because now more than ever your kids need you. To the rest of the family please be encouraged, and remember that Vengence is mine; saith the LORD, and nothing that YOU can do can impact what he has already written. Stay strong as a family and please give Christy, and Ms. Barbara the support that they are both going to need.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL, AND I WILL SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE BLACK!

LOVE

We can never determine the destiny that God has laid out for us. The one thing that we can do is make the best of the time that we are here on earth. "Black" was a dear friend and I can only remember good things about him. He will truly be missed.
To the family:
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on you own understanding: In all ways acknowledge him and he shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6
