Tootie you looked wonderful in your Wilson Warrior sweatshirt. There were so many people there to mourn the loss, but we all know that we will see you again. The pastor said today that you are trying on your new body, when you arrived to be with our Lord and Saviour. What a laugh we all gave, just to imagine you saying "look at me" and you moving in a modeling way.
Tootie you are with your partner Sach (Mike) whom you missed so very much, when he passed last November. Watch over your boys as they live their lives to make you both proud. R.I.P.
