My Handsome Uncle, who gave me the name Kay-Kay. Your early introduction to the magic of music and instrumentals shaped my love for songs and will stay with me forever. I will forever cherish our conversations during your lunch breaks and how you always made me laugh and feel so incredibly special. Thank you for the melodies, the memories, and the endless warmth you gave me.

With love and forever in my heart,
Your niece, Kay-Kay 🎶

September 7th, 2019, the day before Rhea’s birthday, Dad and his daughter Rhea shared a special visit together in Atlanta, Georgia. Their time was filled with laughter, love, and good conversation, creating memories to be treasured forever. It has was a celebration of joy in the simplest moments—full of dad jokes and shared smiles. Those who knew them would remember the warmth, humor, and love that defined their connection, a bond that will live on in the hearts of all who were touched by it.

This was one of the happiest moments I had with you. I was attending Atlanta Technical College and you had an event going on with Crystal Springs (2014). It was such a surprise to see you that day! We ate lunch together and talked for a while and shared our personal life experiences. You encouraged me and gave me strength that day to keep moving forward no matter what happened or any obstacles I may need to overcome. Always reminding me that I was your “Tabby baby”

Forever in my heart dad, the time we had together, the laughs we shared cutting jokes, and you teaching me about how your beautiful daughters all deserved the best because we had your blood running through us and there was nothing we couldn’t accomplish!

Kaeden Jacob and Dad first meeting (2012) We really enjoyed this day with you and seeing how happy you were to meet him!

To the family of Billy one memory I would like to share is his great love for music we went out together and we had a nice time listening to the music and socializing ,Billy knew the artist the lyrics and the instruments ,he will truly be missed.    You all have my  sympathy.
