I sleep maybe 4 or 5 hours a night. I am trying to make some decisions on a lot. It has been a little tough for me. My age is coming fast, but I am blessed, thanks to your Mom for a lot of things. YOu son is great and very smart, like his Dad. I have been blessed in alot of ways. God is so good to me. He left me here for a reson. I try to do the best that I can for everyone. I am keeping the faith. I miss you so much, but I know you are with us all the time. God bless you.

December 5, 2013

When you have eternal life, what's another Birthday...bet Shirlette feels a little older herself. Just try blowing those candles out after 1,000 years? You are truly missed by everyone who knew you but your son is definitely the spitting image of you and blesses everyone. I will see you again sooner than later now that I've hit the 60 mark. Can't imagine what it's like in Glory and in the presence of Jesus who loves us all so much. Eye has not seen nor ear heard neither has entered into the hearts of man those things that God has prepared for us that know Him. Whew, what a day it will be when we are all together again. Happy Days always.

December 4, 2013

Well today you would have been 40 years old. WOW. Here's wishing you a Happy Birthday anyhow. We love and miss you very much. From Mom and Trayevon.

To My Emo,

Wow! Doesn't seem as if ten years have passed since I last saw your handsome face....it actually seems like just yesterday. You are so missed by ALL your family and friends. I know that God doesn't make mistakes. When he called you home....he needed you, and he even knew that we also needed you here, still do. He needed an angel like you. Someone with a generous heart, a joyful spirit,a loving soul and such a passion for life. That is the reason for your family celebrating your life as you would want us too. I really miss the talks we used to have that no one had a clue about. You didn't take any mess from me did you? LOL My heart is and will always be filled with memories and love for you my Emo. I am so grateful to God because when he carried you home he left your family with another blessing by the name of Trayevon. Everytime I see him, I see you. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. He is the apple of Shirl's eye just like you were. We will all see you at your resting place tommorrow with joy and sorrow in our hearts, but smiles on our faces because I know you will have a heavenly smile on yours. Continue to rest in perfect and absolute peace and know that you are loved.....still.

Hugs and Kisses,
Aunt Bev

October 2, 2013

Good morning. Well......It has been 10 years now and I still think about you every minute of every hour of every day. Your son is turning 10 this year. You would be so proud of him. He is my future lawyer(unless that changes next week). I sure wish you were here with him. We miss and love you.

Mom

October 1, 2013

Well Troy,
It's now been ten years since you have left us and it has not gotten any easier. We are all just dealing with missing you. Things are just not the same without you here. We just have a missing link. Now we have your son, which he is growing up so fast.

I just want to say that we LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU, YOU RE ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS.
Until we meet again

Love you,

Aunt Deborah

Well, your grandma is now 79 years old. Boy, I miss you so much, especially now. Things are ok, but it is real tough now. Things are so expensive. Everyone is just trying to make it. Family is doing okay, but this world is now a mess with a lot of things going on. Marcus is a father again with a handsome baby boy. Your son is so tall and smart. All the kids are going fine. We are trying to stay in church and prayer. There is nothing to do except watch television and read. Will continue to pray for you and especially, your son. Keep an eye on him.

Loving and missing you.

Happy Father's Day, Troy. I know you can't believe how much Trayvon looks like you and the amazing love your Mom gives to him. Continue to surprise them with little things until everyone is together again.

June 10, 2013

Hey Troy, it's grandma again. I forgot to wish you a Happy Fathers Day. Love you.

June 10, 2013

Hi Troy. It is 1:12 am on Saturday. I know you are watching over me. Thanks for coming to see me the other night. Your grandfather was here too. I needed to talk to you then. I had a lot on me. I am trying. I pray all day and when I am up at night. I had my other knee done. I am doing ok right now. The family is doing ok. Well my sister, Becky, is up there with you. It is only 3 of us left now, me, Leon and Doris. The Lord has been good to me. I am so blessed. I will go back to church tomorrow. I will be so glad. Your mom and son are doing real good. He is looking just like you and has your ways. By the way, he is very smart. All the family is doing the best that they can. I will be waiting for you to come see me again. I miss you so much.

Love always.

March 8, 2013

Hey Troy. Today I am 59 years young and still going strong. Your son is planning a birthday party for me tonight at my house. He told Jill when she asked him what kind of food he was having and he told her that Nana has food. We can use that and then told Debra when she wanted to bring hotdogs that I have shrimp in the freezer. Can you believe it? He is so excited about "planning a party" by himself. He reminds me of you so much that it is eerie. All-in-all I had a nice birthday so far, but the fun comes tonight when I get home. Just thought I would share this with you. Love you boy.

Hey Troy. It's mom. I hate that you never met your son. Today he is nine years old and looks more like you than ever. I have compared your school pictures to his and it is like looking at you again. You both look so much alike. Troy, continue to watch over your son. See you boy. Love and kisses. Mom

October 4, 2012

Hey Troy,
Nine years it has been since you left us, and you are truly missed a lot. Just wanted to stop in and say we love you and miss you.

Aunt Deborah

October 3, 2012

Hey Troy:

Well here I am again. I miss you so much boy. I could talk to you and then I would know how to take care of a lot of things. But I still talk to you in my own way. Well, the good Lord let me turn 78. I feel okay. I started back to work as a crossing guard. Wish you were here to see me. I run into a lot of people where I used to work and they remember you so well. Well the family is doing okay. Everyone is trying to make it. It is pretty rough out here. Your mom is doing well. She helps me out alot. Your son is so tall and thin like his Dad and very smart. I wish you could see Marcus' little one. He is a mess. But I know you saw him in spirit. Everyone is doing okay. Not too much to do now. There is just so much going on. We all go to church and spend time together on the weekends. We do not party much now, for one I am too old. Well I have some work to do. Will catch you later.

Love Grandma

Dave

October 2, 2012

Still feels like yesterday bro. Thank you for making me who I am today. Keep watching over us. Love you champ!

June 19, 2012

To My Emo,

First of all Happy Belated Fathers Day. It was so nice visitin and talking to you on Sunday. I really miss you Troy, and love you buchches. But Bette Lee said it best in her message to you through the Holy Spirit, I ditto that. Trayvon really misses you do even though he never got to meet you or you him, I know you and our father are always looking down on him. You would have been a wonderful dad, dressing him similar to your tatse, taking him everywhere that you went, etc.... I'm so glad he has you to watch over him and every situation that he has been put through or will go through......but God. His word says When you train up a child in the way he should go......when he is old....he will never depart from you. I love you Emo, you will forever be in my heart. Rest in total and absolute peace.

Love from,
Aunt Bev

June 18, 2012

Happy Father's Day. Lucky for you that you are with the perfect Father in heaven who is watching and praying for his children still here on earth. It's a struggle sometimes for Dad's to be great Dad's with strong Christian morals to guide their children into the truth of Jesus being our all in all and that Jesus is our Saviour who loved us enough to die for our sins and is coming again to receive all of us unto himself to live with Him in glory. We all need to be more concerned about Sprititual thing than the things of this world which will pass away. However, Shirlette is the best person God has watching over your son here. God bless everyone.

I was thinking about you and just wanted to say hello to you and that I miss and love you.

Mom

May 13, 2012

Hi Troy.
Well I am late again but know that you are always on my mind. I pray all the time ror you. I miss you so much especially our special talks. Now it is time for you to come sit on my bed and chat. That will make me feel so good. I went back to work and it's not bad. I have had so much on my mind, but prayer helps. Right now after eating dinner, I rested and then read for a bit. Troy your son looks just like you and he is so tall and handsome. He loves school. Your mom is doing fine. She helps me out a lot and the Lord will bless her for her kindness. The family is doing fine. The Lord blessed me with a good family. I will write again soon. I miss you so much. Love you boy.

Grandma

Bette Lee

May 3, 2012

Hey Troy,

I can't even imagine what a great time you have continuously in Heaven. Can't say the same about us poor folk still here on planet earth. However, the signs of the times are upon us and we could be raptured any minute and we will all rejoice in seeing Jesus, Our Savior, you and all our loved ones that have gone on before us and all the wonderful inspired men who left us God's living word knowing how much we needed it. Keep watching and praying for everyone and some sweet day we will meet again.
Love ya, Bette

May 2, 2012

Hey My Emo,

It's been a minute but you are always on my mind on a daily basis. I continue to miss you and love you with all that I am. I ride around with three different pictures of you. You're my co-pilot and I always felt safe around you-----so Thank you Emo. I won't go into detail but I sure hope you are proud of me today. But God..... I know that was something you wanted towards the end and I always respected the fact that you wanted it for my son also. That is one of the many traits that I so loved about you. I will never ever forget what a generous and loving soul God made you to be. I understand why he needed you when he called you-----because you are his special Angel and those were his plans. If I think of it in other terms it would make me sad so I remember the happy times, your smiling face and your corny jokes, plus I don't question God's will for us. Guess what? I think your son has a crush. LOL Watch over him continously because this world is a crazy place if you decide you are going to live worldly ways instead of God's way. (I know that all to well so I had to choose) Continue to pray for me, and all your cousins too, especially the ones that are getting in their teens. Watch out world. Anyway I'll talk to you soon. Until then rest in total and absolute peace My Emo.

Love,
Aunt Bev

January 18, 2012

Hey Troy,
It's been a minute since I've posted anything. But you've been on my mind alot this week and I just wanted to say hello. Your son is a total trip and he keeps me laughing. He's so proper and he gets a kick outta saying "Hi Regina" when he sees me since your mom told him that was my first name. Then he starts cracking up! Brings back memories of you at that age. Remember that time I hooked you on the door knob by your belt hoop? LOL You were furious cuz you couldn't get down. I loved messing with you. Anyway, back to work I go. Until we meet again, I'm still

Loving you...missing you

Well Troy. It is almost the end of December 2011. It was a wonderful year. Just a lot of things going on. I have tried my best to do the right things. I wish you were here so we could talk. I was glad you came the other night. Starting in 2012, I intend to change alot of things in my life. I am not getting any younger. I am so blessed that my health is ok. I really miss seeing you sitting on the end of my bed. But you left a son that is so wonderful and very smart. Well it is Chrismas and 2012 is almost here. I want to say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I love you so much.

Bette Lee

December 5, 2011

Wow, a Birthday Cake in Heaven won't be able to hold all of the candles for an eternity. Nothing to wish for either because you have your heart's desires. Have another blessed day in Glory until we meet again. Keep watch over your Mom and Tray and Grandma. Praise the Lord.

November 2, 2011

Good morning Troy. Well today your little man is 8 years old and he is so tall now. He was just appointed President of his third grade class. I want you to know that you have an intelligent child. Even though you never got a chance to hold him, I am doing it for you. I love him so much and I promise you I wil take special care of him.

Love Mom

You are not forgotten Troy and never will be. Today makes eight years since you left us and I think about you every waking day of my life. Rest in peace, my son. Love Mom and your son, Trayevon.

September 27, 2011

My Emo,

It seems like only yesterday that we received the news that you were called home. Although you are in a much better place then we are right now, you are truly missed. I am so grateful that the Lord's grace and mercy allowed me to see another year so that I can be there on October 2nd to honor your name. I am also extremely blessed because God left us with your legacy, Trayevon, when he called you home. Too soon I must say, but who am I to question God? He doesn't make mistakes and we don't have to know his reasons. I am just glad that he has an angel like you. You blessed us with your presence while you were here and you still continue to do so. So Emo, know that you are missed and loved and you always will be. Continue to rest in total and absolute peace my nephew. I love you!!!!!

September 26, 2011

Troy:

It's Grandma, again. The time is flying right now. I feel you sitting on my bed. That is what I told Traye and Brandon the other day. We talked about you for a while. They wanted to know a lot of things about when you were small and after you started working, how you and Marcus bought your cars and they looked alike and then would sneak and wash them using all my water. Traye and Brandon did not know what to say. When Marcus' son is here, all he does is look at your picture. Troy I miss you so much, sometimes I just cry, but I know you are right here with us at all times. Your mom is doing fine and taking good care of your son. All the family is well. I turned 77 this year and really feel blessed. I feel good too. I try to stay busy.

Well, I can say your son looks just like you. He is real tall and handsome. I want you to know that I will be going to the cemetery to visit real soon. It has been raining a whole lot. You have a birthday coming up. I still miss you. Love you so much.

Grandma
God bless you.

June 17, 2011

Hey Emo,

Just wanted 2 wish U a Happy Father's Day! I can imagine what kind of father U would have been. Traye would have the same style as U had as he already has the same traits. Continue always to look down on Traye, he needs U so much, as we all do. U may have been taken 2 soon but God knows what he's doing and even though we miss U I know that we will see each other again. Until then rest in total and absolute peace. So blessed are U. Keep being my angel and my riding partner. I love U Emo------always. Again, Happy Father's Day. See U Sunday.
Love Aunt Bev.

June 16, 2011

Happy Father's Day, Troy. I miss and think about you more than you'll ever know. I must tell you that I just finished reading a fantastic book entitled "Heaven is for Real" and it was good story. Made we wonder if that how heaven really is. It sounded so marvelous. I always knew it would be. After reading it, I am finally at peace. I now know that I can go on living because you are fine. Had to write early because I will not be near a computer. Wish I could come visit you on Fathers' Day, but know that I am thinking of you and love you. Until next time. Mom

June 16, 2011

Hi Troy,

Another's Father's Day. Happy Father's Day to you. Well another year without you. It is really getting to me. I miss you so much. I miss talking to you as you sat on the corner of my bed. We would discuss lots of things. You were very special and still are, but especially when you would come by to see me and we would chat. You should see your son, just like his father, and so smart. The family is doing ok, just trying to make in this tough world. Marcus and J.B. help to keep things going. Your mom is doing okay healthwise. I miss you so much.

Well, I'll see you on Sunday.

Love,
Grandma

June 8, 2011

My Emo,
I just happened 2 be on the computer this morning and U came to mind. Remembering who and how you were makes me miss U all the more. Sometimes I even wonder what U may be doing on a day 2 day basis. I do know that you are happy and content with no worries whatsoever because that is what heaven provides---Peace, among other blessing. Though I miss U terribly, just know that where U are cannot even begin 2 compare to where I am. I know you've seen my grandson, is he wonderful or what!! Continue to look down on me and the family as I know U have been all this time. Don't stop being my angel because I sure do need U. Well I'll close now and finish what I was doing, I just needed 2 talk 2 U for a minute. Rest in absolute and total peace until I see U again.

Love 4 Life,
Aunt Bev

April 21, 2011

Hey Emo,

Hey Troy,

It has been a long time since I wrote anything. There has been so much going on with me and other family members, but I try to stay in prayer. Boy, I miss talking to you when things are on my mind. You always gave me the right answers. Things are really tough in this world, like it is coming to an end. Troy, I know you see your son and talk to him. He looks just like you and he is so smart. The family is doing ok. Come to see Shannon one night. You would not know her. Your Mom is doing good healthwise. I check on her everyday. I will be in the hospital next week, but I am strong and I pray a lot. I will be up to see you soon. I miss you so much. You were a together young man and knew what you wanted in life. I miss you so much. I will not wait this long next time to write you. I love you!

Merry Christmas Troy.

Trayevon also says Merry Christmas. I am going to pick him up at 2:00 today for him to enjoy Xmas with his Nana. He is going to be so excited. I have my video camera ready and waiting to capture all those special moments of him. He learned just this year, that his mom and Nana are his Santa Clauses. The other day he told me that he hopes you have a wonderful time at Jesus' birthday. I am sure you will. I want to thank you for the 29 wonderful years that I had you in my life, but to me you are in my life forever and I will never, ever forget your laughter, your craziness and most of all your love. Love Mom and Trayevon

Well Troy. Today Trayevon is 7 years old. It is a joy having him in my life. He had his birthday party on Halloween and was a vampire. Hopefully, next year I will give him his party. Talk to you soon.

Dear Emo,

First of all I want to say how much I love you and miss you. Secondly, I am so sorry that I was not there with the rest of the family to honor and celebrate your life and your memory. I know you are watching over me so of course you know why. Although I wasn't there, my heart was and always will be with you. May you continue to rest in total and absolute peace and I will see you again when God calls me home. In the meantime thanks for being my angel.

Love you dearly,

Aunt Bev
