August 24, 2020 at 3:51 pmDaddy there are no words to express how devastated and heartbroken we are that you left us so suddenly. Your passing has left a big hole in our hearts. We are blessed to have such wonderful memories of you, and we will cherish them for the rest of our lives. We know that God makes no mistakes, but it is still a tough pill to swallow knowing you are not physically here with us. We are looking forward to seeing you again. You will always have a space in our hearts.

April 19, 2021 at 5:01 pmI am so sorry to read about Joe’s passing. I stayed at the house in Brighton back in 1974 with his sister, Beulah. Joe was good friends with my late mother, Maxine. He was such a nice man to me. There are times that I think about the house on Pearl Street in Brighton. Again, my sincerest condolences goes out to the family.
