Alton. Was a wonderful cousin. He always made you very welcome when I was around him. He came to me at a time in my husband and my life. He stayed with my husband 4 days after my late husband's open heart surgery. He was baby sitter so I could return to work.
I will sure miss him.
My sympathy goes out to his family. He will be miss.
