I am praying for the family and you have my condolences. He and I were classmates and neighbors for many years.

I write these words in full gratitude to you B.T. for your dedication, foresight, and vision.  I’m, grateful for the jewels of wisdom you bestowed upon me, and so many others about the importance of family history, kinship, and the discovery of Our Ancestors and their stories.  As intended, The Washington Ancestry Project, has served as my “foundational root” of genealogical discoveries; it has also become a pivotal tool in cultivating new family relationships that continue to Bless me today. My eyes fill with liquid Prayers reflecting upon moments we shared together, conversations we had even when you were schooling me.    I cherish you and the memories. And it’s an honor to be of kin.  Thank you B.T. 
Sweet Ascension Big Cuz!

Booker T, I am so grateful for the sacrifices you made to ensure our family ties were preserved and cultivated. Out of the seeds you planted, new friendships blossomed with new found family members I am so honored to have met and shared so much love and laughter. Because of you, our family branches have grown and continue to grow.  I pray your closest loved ones know how deeply appreciative we are for them sharing You with us. You will be greatly missed. May God comfort us now and always. 

Much Love 
Katherine Robinson & Family 

If it had not been for BT, my family would have never had the opportunity to meet the rest of the family on my great grandfather's side. BT orchestrated a family reunion that brought us all together as one.  He researched the family history and joined the missing links. What was so ironic was all the similar names on both sides of the family. There were two Booker Ts: three George's; three  Sam's and many others. It was wonderful meeting new family members. BT would always keep us up to date with his family and would often inquire how others were doing as well. We are thankful that we were able to meet my cousin BT. You will always be remembered as someone who persevered to bring the family full circle. You will be missed. 

My cousin Booker T and I talked most mornings on my way to work. We both would discuss family matters, personal, and business depends on the mood. No matter what it was we both enjoyed the conversation and laughed about it at the same time. I am so happy that he was responsible for connecting the Washington‘s family  together through his ancestry research and hard work at it.  I love you BIG cousin and I am going to miss you. RIH, Sam!
