SEEMS LIKE ONLY YESTERDAY THAT I ROCKED YOU RONNIE IN THAT BIG OLD ROCKING CHAIR. MY LITTLE BROTHER YOU MEANT THE WORLD TO ME.I OFTEN WONDER WHAT LIFE WOULD HAVE BEEN LIKE IF YOU HAD NOT GONE HOME TO HEAVEN. BUT GOD SAW HOW MUCH YOU WERE SUFFERING AND CALLED IS LIL' ANGEL HOME. YOUR SKIN WAS ,THE COLOR OF PEARLS AND YOUR EYES AS BLUE AS THE SKY, YOUR HAIR STRAIGHT AND JET BLACK.I LOVED YOU SO MUCH RONNIE. I WANT US TO BE TOGETHER IN HEAVEN. MOTHER WAS HOLDING YOU IN HER ARMS,DADDY HAD STOPPED TO GET GAS, AND WHEN HE CAME BACK TO THE CAR...MOTHER TOLD HIM,"NO NEED TO HURRY SAM RONNIE IS GONE".I WAS 5 YRS. OLD. PRECIOUS MEMORIES OF YOU I CARRY IN MY HEART.

RONNIE PAUL WAS MY SWEET LITTLE BROTHER. I REMEMBER ROCKING HIM IN A ROCKING CHAIR SO HARD SOMETIMES I WOULD TURN US OVER. LUCKILY WE NEVER GOT HURT. I HAD ONE SONG I WOULD SING TO HIM:"ROCKY ROAD BLUES" MY BIG BROTHER, SAM WOULD SAY TO OUR MOTHER," MAMA EDE TAT{KAT} SINGING ONE OF THOSE BAD SONGS...SEEMS LIKE ONLY YESTERDAY BUT IT WAS 71 YEARS AGO. I WILL NEVER FORGET THE DAY YOU LEFT US.
