May the ancestors embrace & guide you♥️🖤💚
I am so sorry for the loss of this good man. I wish my health would allow me to attend. To all my family I am sending ❤️ 🙏 💕
Back in school his nickname was "June Bug". On Record Day, he brought Michael Jackson, and he was THE MAN on Field Day. He had the biggest smile and the best laugh back in those days, and hearing of his passing has hit harder than I ever would've thought. Rest in peace brother. And may our Heavenly Father welcome you with open arms.
Our condolences to our extended Family. We all played together as younger kids. I'll always treasure the times we spent just hanging out while our parents visited one another. " June Bug" you were like younger brother to me & we could talk about everything. You'll truly be missed, but never forgotten.
