"I am so sorry to learn of Uncle Henry`s death. I will always remember him as a kind, loving and talkative Uncle. He always had time for me whn I was little.
Aunt Sis, I will always remeber the beauty shop and how you let me prowl.
Nanette, I will never forget the clothes you gave me when I had no school clothes.
Nanny took them and fixed them to fit. She taught me how to hem. They were great clothes.
And of course, Steven Keith, I will always love. He was my Easter egg hunting buddy.
Once again, so sorry for your loss.
I love you all and may God be with you."

"Mrs. Break & family,

So sorry to hear of Mr. Break's passing. Mr. Break was such a wonderful man and I remember several years ago going to church with him at Mineral Heights Baptist Church. He always like to tease people and was so friendly. Mrs. Break you and Mr. Break worked with my mom Wanda at Lance and we went to church together. You are all in my prayers and thoughts. God bless you all."
