When I heard the news, a childhood memory came to mind. It was of Uncle Albert coming down from New York to visit. We all gathered together for a meal at the family house on Branch Street, and following the meal he asked all of his nieces and nephews to go and have a seat on the floor of the living room. Once we were all seated he brought out bags of treats and placed them on the floor for us to take. It was an unforgettable memory. May you rest in peace, Uncle Albert. We will miss you! Love, your niece Angelar Kay
