Aunt Luetta and all my cousins , I'm sorry about uncle Hatchets passing, I know it hurts tremendously, but he's in a better place. When I lost mom back in July I prayed that God would let her know how much I missed and loved her, then the next day I found a voice message on my cell phone from a few days before she passed away, she told me she loved me I don't think this was just coincedental. You'll all be in our prayers and thoughts , and if there's anything we can do please let us know. We love you!
