Twenty-Third Psalm
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;
He leadeth me beside the still waters. He
restoreth my soul; He leadeth me in the
paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of
the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for
Thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they
comfort me. Thou preparest a table before
me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou
anointest my head with oil, my cup runneth
over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life: and I shall dwell
in the house of the Lord forever.
May God grant him paradise
I miss you daddy so much

Uncle Tommy was a good friend more like a brother to my dad. I never forget the smile on my dd's face when the met up the summer . The Loyalty between friends could not be expressed in words. Uncle Tommy and my Dad are both now in the spirit world.

Thinking of you as I deal with a hurtle in my life. Wondering what advice you would give in this moment. Wishing I could call you, just to say hey Daddy and hear you say "hey Antoinette", like only you could.
