We are never the same when we lose our Daddy. It’s like ripping part of your body and soul off and out of you. To my sweet cousins, Robert, Kathy, and Teresa, my prayers go up for you for strength and comfort in this extremely difficult time. Aunt Jackie, I should have consulted you years ago about how to keep a marriage viable, because obviously you knew what you were doing. I love this family so much. I’m asking God to send the Comforter, as He promised He would. Uncle Melvin was an awesome man and he will be missed by us all. Blessings to this family.
