FROM THE SONS
Daddy, you are loved by so many. You have touched
so many lives. Your absence is deeply felt and very
painful.
You gave us so much. Your life will be an inspiration
and we will always remember your beautiful smiles
and your cheerful laughter.
Daddy, we remember how you worked. We will also
remember your love for the Lord and how you taught
us to love Him.
We will not forget your love for the family. We will
not forget your values and, you taught them to us.
Daddy, we will join you in heaven some day. We
know you are watching . We love you Daddy.
Love always,
Your sons,
Raymond, Sr., Micha, Sr., & Elijha, Jr.
UNCLE
"Unka"
Unka, I was born in your home. You named me
Murina Jewell I then became your Baby Girl
I felt so honored sitting at your feet looking in your
face as you rehearsed with the quartet singers. Being
inspired by you, singing is an important part of my life.
You taught me to never leave home without combing
my hair, wearing a clean dress and shoes on my feet.
You also taught me to laugh and love the Lord. I
remember the teachings and examples you and mother
set for me to this day. I always wanted to please you.
Unka, I will cherish the many days and nights of joy,
peace and happiness we shared.
I love you Unka and will miss you very, very much.
Your baby girl, Murina Jewell
