Sonny,



I was saddened to hear of your father passing.



As you struggle to cope with your loss, find comfort in knowing his soul has been set free and his spirit soars in flight without the chains of life to bind him. With no more pain and sorrow to bear, golden wings have lifted him away from earthly cares. He flies among the angels now, in the presence of the Lord.



My prayers will continue to be with you and your family.



Love, Kim and Antoine

Daryl,

Thinking of you

in the loss of your father

with the sympathy

and understanding

that words can only try

to express.



May you find comfort

in knowing that many people

share your sadness.



Love,

Quentin, LaDonna, Tyree & Anthony
