Hey big Bro. Today is your birthday and I know this has to be the best one ever for you, celebrating with the angels. I think of you everyday. I miss your smile, your laughter and your 'so full of life spirit.'

We thought of you with love today,
but that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
and days before that too.
We think of you in silence,
we often speak your name.
All we have are memories,
and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
with which we will never part.
God has you in His keeping,
we have you in our hearts.

Have a heavenly HAPPY BIRTHDAY Otis

To my beloved brother. It's been a little over 2 months since God called you home. Every time I look at any of your pictures, theres always an expression associated with it; sadness and joy. Sadness because you're gone from us. Joy because your presence always brought joy even when things were dim, you'd always a way of brightening up the day!

Dad,

Its still so unreal that you're not here with me. Sometimes I just sit in the room in the dark waiting for you to call my name. First Born, as you called me.... Im doing exactly what I promised you! Love you Daddy!

What's up Unc, There's so much going on right now since u've been gone. For 1, the Church needs a wake up call. It feels so uncomfortable now. Can u do me a solid? ;-) Ask God to touch the hearts of the members...We need it more than ever.
By the way, I hear that Whitney has joined the choir. GIVE GOD THE GLORY AND HE WILL GIVE YOU THE VICTORY. 143UO

My dear brother Otis, it's being about 1 month since the Lord called you home and you had to leave us. It still hurt a lot. On Friday evenings, I think of you preparing your supplies and making BBQ, gettin' your food truck ready for the week-end. The family as a whole is having a tough time but you are exactly where you are suppose to be; in the arms of our Ever Loving Father. Love you!

Uncle Otis, Thank you for being the pillar of our family. For planting seeds of wisdom and exhibiting what a true servant of Christ looks like. Thank you for teaching us that true praise is not contingent on our external circumstances. Even though you have gone on to be with The Lord, your role in our family, community and church will have an eternal impact. I love you and will miss you.

Otis, it has been said already but it is so true that no words can express all the emotions of admiration, appreciation and love for you! You were and will always be a huge part of my life but I know God is executing his plan and it is now time for you to be with him! Praise God for he is good all the time! So go and get your praise on brother. God bless you and the family.

HEY PASTOR; SO MANY WORDS TO SAY NOW THAT YOUR NOT HERE PHYSICALLY WITH US. I'VE ONLY HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO KNOW AND LOVE YOU FOR A SHORT WHILE.1YR 1/2. BUT DURING THOSE TIMES I REFERRED TO YOU AS FATHER. YOUR WORDS OF WISDOM AND COMFORT WERE SO STRONG TO ME AND OUR CHURCH DURING YOUR TIME CLOSE TO TWILIGHT IT WAS TRULY AMZING! REST IN PEACE TIL THE FATHER BRINGS US ALL HOME. MISS U.

Words cannot express the sorrow your passing leaves behind. This family will never be the same! You brought joy and happiness to every gathering, every situation. But I find comfort in knowing that you suffer no more and you are resting safely in your Father's loving arms. Rest in Christ!!! And when you're all rested up, GET YOUR PRAISE ON!! Love your God-Daughter and great niece Niya.

Words cant express how much I miss you uncle Otis. There is so much that we will miss about you, but we know a part of us went with you. Although you may not be here physically, there is a place in our hearts that you have. I know for sure that you are not suffering anymore because you are resting in the arms of God. We love you uncle Otis! See you in the rapture!

My dear brother Otis; Oh how I miss you so much. I keep picturing that big smile on your face, so full of joy and laughter. You were always the life of the party. You made a personal appearance at Jesus birthday party. I love you always.

Unc, called me and said,"Kev, I want you to sing that song that you sang at Bible study, in Church tomorrow." Ok Unc...We're sitting in Church and it's coming to an end. Unlce O was inviting people to visit a Chruch in Perth Amboy. "Ok, but not me, i'm going to watch the game." I thought I've gotten away clean from singing. Then I hear him say, "Come on up, everybody's welcome to go, and  Brother Kevin will be singing..." I was shocked, stunned, and thinking about missing the game, but I went anyway. I sang that song and another..... Thank You Uncle O...I was fortunate to record these videos...Especially You Celebrating!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I LOVE YOU UNC!!!!!!
