I will truly miss my Uncle Marcus (ML). My most memorable memory is when he took me and my cousins Gloria and Selina to our first concert to see James Brown at the Howard Theater. Uncle ML was truly a gift from God. He was there for my family when my father (his brother) and my nephew died. One day I will join you around the throne of God in heaven. Until then, rest in peace Uncle ML.

On behalf of Brother to Brother Sister to Sister United, Inc., a biking team, I want to express condolences on the passing of Mr. Latimer. He rode with some of our members at Gold's Gym. And now he rides with the angels. From what the minister said at the service this morning, he seemed a mighty fine person, someone many were glad to have shared this life with.
