Shea, I'm at a loss for words. I am so deeply sorry your daddy is gone— my heart truly breaks for you.

Your dad has been a part of my life for over 40 years. From the first time we met, I looked up to him as I did my own father— a man who loved God and always cared for his family.

He stood tall, strong, and proud— always wearing his armor to protect those he loved. I know how hard it must have been to watch his health decline. But knowing you, Princess and your mom were there, loving him through it all, he surely knew he had done his job well.

Take comfort in knowing your daddy is now at peace, free from pain, resting in the presence of God. One day, you'll see him again— in a place where love and peace never end.

I love you, and I'm here for you. If you ever need a shoulder to cry on or someone to listen, please don't hesitate to reach out. Let me know if there's anything I can do for you or your family.

Love you Shea

Kimberly Logan

This was my big brother in Christ. He was one of the most kindest man I have ever met. He loved God, his Family and his Church. My life has been blessed with knowing him the short time in my life. I will never forget his words of wisdom , his smiles and sense of humor. There will never be another like him! My sincere condolences to do family and we know you all loved him but in the end we know God loved him more.🙏🏽

To the Plummer Family and especially my Nephew Terrance Ronell Plummer What an awesome God we serve. How awesome you had the opportunity to visit your Dad and see the loving relationship he had for his beautiful wife and his loving family, but most of all you had a chance to see your Father's earthly wings (his Faith in God)become stronger to fly into the arms of Jesus. I know the Plummer Family is mourning but heaven is rejoicing because another Angel has arrived home. Family stay peaceful and love on. Job well done 👏🏾 ✔️ 👍🏾 🙌🏽 Blessings forever Juanita Forman Cohen Finley West Palm Beach Florida ⛱️ 😎

Princess, I am so sorry for the loss of your father. I recently lost my dear sister Debbie. It"s a strange coincidence, but I just noticed that your father died on Debbie's birthday (September 3) and was born on the date she died (January 9). Now God has two beautiful angels in heaven. Sending much love and prayers to you and your family.
