It was the shocking news that brought tears to my eyes and you made me remember what it was like to cry. On that dreadful day God decided it was your time, your time to go. I felt the pain, the pain of you not being here with me. It’s harder than I ever thought life could be without you. I will always think of you and will always know that you’ll be looking down on me keeping me safe making sure everything goes okay in my life like you did until the day you passed away. I hope you were watching the day we all gathered at aunt Buzzy’s house sharing funny stories looking at old photos of you and good times we had with you. Those times and thoughts will never leave my mind nor memory. Uncle Bernie I promise to look after and do all I can for aunty Vetta, Kalori and Kamiyah the granddaughter you didn’t get to meet. Don’t you fret she will know who her grandfather was, we will make sure of it. So until I see you again you rest and remember I love you so, so much.
Your Niece, LaKesia Valentine
