It´s still so hard to believe that Ike is gone. Good bless you my dear friend Ruth. Tracey´s passing was September 2016. You and Ike were her Godparents.

My condolences to you Ruth and your family, may you find strength to carry on for your loved ones. Ike (as Ruth called you) I will always remember you and your greatness, as well as your loving family God's peace for everyone of you.

Ike and my mom's funeral both on 9/11, her's in 2006.

As you reflect about the memories you shared with Mr. Fulwood, remember to smile, laugh, and even cry! All three will help with healing. I'm here Ruth if you need a shoulder to lean on; I will always be a big "fan" of the Fulwood family.

Sending my love ...virtually.

To the Family of Chief Isaac Fulwood Jr,

I have a fond memory of you and Chief Fulwood. Many years ago, you gave a birthday party for him at the restaurant in the Design Center in SW DC. I came in by accident, not knowing it was a private party. But you didn't kick me out. Thank you.

Many years later, I ran into the Chief in public and he recognized me. He didn't remember from where. I reminded him when I accidentally crashed his birthday party. We laughed.

Thank you for that great memory. God bless all of you at this time.
