A Message of Love, Faith, and Eternal Reunion Today, we remember and celebrate the life of Uncle Tuffy, a man whose heart overflowed with love, devotion, and faith. Though our hearts are heavy, we find peace knowing that he has been reunited with his beautiful queen, Jacqueline Hall Floyd. Theirs was a love story written by God Himself two souls so deeply intertwined that even life on earth could not keep them apart. Jacqueline was not only his wife, but the greatest part of him his strength, his joy, and his peace. Now, together again, they are whole once more. As painful as this moment is, we must remember that Uncle Tuffy's journey was one of love love so powerful it longed for eternity.
To Daphne and Rhonda, please hold fast to your faith and your memories. You were blessed beyond measure to have two fathers who loved you deeply, and a mother who wore her crown with grace, courage, and unwavering dignity. Uncle Tuffy never once thought of you as stepdaughters in his heart, you were his daughters, always and forever.
To Aerica, and Shonda his loving daughters, and to his cherished grand children may you find strength in his legacy of love and kindness. Let his memory live on in your laughter, in your compassion, and in your faith.
We are a solid family, built on love, strength, and divine support. In times like these, we lean on one another, we lean on God, and we find healing in His promises.
"He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever." Revelation 21:4
Rest peacefully, Uncle Tuffy and Aunt Jacqueline together again in the presence of our Lord. Your love story will continue to inspire us for generations to come.
God will take care of you.
