Year four since your return to spirit. You left a hole so large that it will probably never be filled. We thank God that He allowed us to have you for 44 years. We carry your heart with us, we carry it in our hearts. Rest in peace brother until we meet again.

Lon. Donell. Bland. Today we say your name. It's your Angel Anniversary. Life has moved forward as it does, and our hearts are still in recovery because you have returned to spirit and now reside amongst the ancestors. Our family is not the same without you. We will always carry your memory in our hearts and pray that your soul is at peace. We love and miss you, Lon. Until we meet again brother...

Almost one year to the date and it's still unbelievable; we spoke less than 12 hours before you took your last breath.  Your hopes and dreams will never die.  God is omniscient and thy will be done.  

Our world is extremely different without your presence, Lonzo. I can only imagine how you would've customized your masks to prevent COVID-19!  LOL!  You are forever in my heart and not a day goes by when I don't think of you.  Until we meet again...

This is the part of life that sucks BIG TIME!!! It’s been two months but not a day goes by when I don’t think of you.  I know you’re with the ancestors and are safe in His arms, but we sure do miss you terribly.  I’m dreading “our birthday” this year but I know you’ll find a way to reach out.  Never, ever will you be forgotten.
