Dear Tabetha:

While contemplating some last words, I wondered whether or not we were soulmates… and if so,
am I minutes, days, or months behind you… There are no last words when you’re at a loss for
words. The plans of tomorrow perished yesterday. The perspective of life you longed to share with
me, I’ve lost the opportunity to perceive. No more dinners, inner plans, conversations or simple
“okay, baby daddy”. And if you are gone too soon, how did my failed love contribute to your
demise?

All I can hope is that you’re in the Arms of love that never fails… for every unkind
word spoken in your hearing that affected your soul, I pray His truth finally pervades… “Baby
momma, you were and you are beautifully and wonderfully made…” All I can perceive is that
your new existence is far more glorious then we could ever imagine. Free from the sins of this
earth that bog us down. Free from the pressures of life that alter and all together change our God
-given design. Free from compromise, deception and lies… I imagine you’ve traversed all the
forks life presents and you know whether or not the cross is our only bridge over troubled waters.
With your passing it has brought the delicacy of life to our front door, and I wonder what to
do…

My soul says live, and that more abundantly. Grab ahold of the highest principles this
life offers, on its bevy of choices for success. Build not only for tomorrow here, but for eternity
there, living as every day is your last. Be God’s love, strengthening the weak., not human lust,
exploiting weaknesses to our own gratification. Cherish the body that you have now, because we
don’t know how long we have it. Keep your circle tight, if they aren’t inspiring more of God’s life
in you, they are just exploiting you for their own gratification and giving your energy to another.
Concepts that are bleak that I hope to display for our son before my minutes, days and months
are gone…

Love Always,

Daniel, more than just your Baby Daddy

Dear Big Sis.. AKA Tabby Wabby,
For the first 7 years of my life, I would have trouble going to sleep so you would have to sing "Heal the
World" for me to fall asleep. You were a fireball of energy, laughter and love. You cared for others, more
than you cared for yourself, and you kept it real whether they wanted to hear it or not. You were classy
when you stepped out and spunky when you needed to be. You were always the one to get THE family
together for gatherings. Family was your number one priority in life. I’m going to miss your famous
potato salad and no one was able to get as close as you did to making grandmothers greens. I'm honored
to have witnessed you receive your Hall of Fame plaque for your accolades at our Alumni High School. I
am so happy I was able to spend your last birthday with you. You left a lasting legacy behind for your
sons and your family to be proud of. I promise to be that Rock that you were to Justin and Noah.
Sincerely your only brother, ANT
