The value of life's lessons we have learned from him over the years will continually be incorporated into our lives for years to come. He was a very giving man to most people that came in contact with him. His commitment to us and our unconditional love for him will see us through in the future. His memory is engraved in our hearts and we already miss his presence. We will never gorget his words, deeds, and actions. We will also believe that he alwyas had our best interest at heart and did whatever he could to make it a true reality. He may be temporarily gone from our sight but we know he is in a better place and he will continue to live in our hearts. Therefore, we celebrate his life and legacy at his Home Going Celebration today and we thank God for allowing us to be a part of his life, and for that we were truly blessed.
