Mamma, Thank You for your constant Love and support.
I can’t express how much I miss you already. I saw where you wrote that “I was your best friend “ and with that being said my promise to you is to honor you with the way I love. The way I give to others. The way I live my life I’ll see you on the later.
Ms. Gillespie you were a wonderful teacher. May you rest in Paradise.

Ms.Gillespie. May you R I P. Fond Memories of you at DHJ in the Mid Eighties. I remember John Alba coming to get me out of class. When gang members were trying to scare me. With your glasses down. You looked at me an pointed out. But you let me back in. Hope to see you again one day. William Todd Oberholzer
