To My

Amazing Son...

Hey baby! I don’t know why and I don’t understand, but it must have been God’s plan. I love you so much, TJ! I promise you will live on forever in my heart! Know that no one could ever take your place. You loved me more than life itself, and I thank you for that! Baby, I couldn’t have asked for a better son. God was waiting for you to turn your life around. I am so very proud of you, and I KNOW that God is pleased. Fly high my love...until I see you again! With Love, Your Mother& Best Friend

For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
