Jan, your brother Kert here. I know at times we didn't see eye to eye. Overall we made it through. This one was shocker! But! At the end of the rainbow. You're my pot of gold. God saw fit and said come on home my child. You're job is well done! Love Kertius Barlow (Oldest brother)
To my sister Janice. I'm glad I got to see you and talk about old times when you were here. I wish we had more time to visit and talk. I will miss you. Love your big brother Tim.π₯β€
We met long time ago. We've been sister-friends through up/down. We worked together and your child was my niece; her and that ice cream. The day you moved; I was devastated but knew I had to let you go. We have history and I can't tell it all. I will watch over your baby! Rest easy my friend. I will always love you π₯° Rosalind Stovall
Auntie, Nothing was dull about you. I know it's been more than 5 years since I've seen you, but when I was with you, I had nothing but good and funny memories. Your personality was one of a kind to say the least. A soul we never thought would leave us so soon. So silly, so loving. Though you're gone too soon, you're now an angel looking down on us. Get your rest now, I'm not upset at you. And we won't let anyone get it twisted or play with your name when it comes to you, as you might say, "I'm still Alberta's daughter." Haha, rest easy, auntie. We love you for life.
