I enjoyed listening to Unc play the bass guitar.
I still remember how we used to sing together so many years ago. the first car I brought you purchased from me.
Thinking of you and wishing you moments of peace and comfort as you remember Jr. who was so close to you. May God bless you and give you strength to help you through this difficult time.
