Hey Brother! Thinking especially of you today and sending a Happy Heavenly Birthday to You. Wow! It's the big 71 for us to you, and you know all of us did our own personal wish to you, in our own way. Lots of LOVE and Joy outweighing the loss of missing your physical presence here with us. We know it was your time to go; to let go of your earthly body. But we know you're in Good Company. It's Dwayne's Heavenly Anniversary as you know, it was on your Birthday that he transitioned to his new Home there, so it's a lot of sharing, celebration of the heart, and gratitude for what has been the most precious parts of our Life in this Body of Earth. Ahh the memories that will last forever!
It will be a year next month that Mom departed her earthly body and arrived there with you all, though it seems like only a few months ago since she left. I/We had her here with us at Christmas as we reminisced about the last two, and of course you were part of it too. I wanted to write to you what was on my heart, I had much to say as usual, but I just didn't get around to writing it down. I know you would say, stop being so hard on myself. I'm still working on trying not to do that, and when I catch myself doing it, I can always hear your voice and it always makes me smile.
So, my sweet and dear Brother, just know that we don't live a day without you, you're Always Alive in our Hearts and Mind. So, here's our Family tribute and toast for your Happy Heavenly 71st Birthday! Cheers To You our Love: ETERNAL LOVE and LIFE!

Well, Brother and dear loved one! It's been two years today since your earthly body left our presence, and I just wanted to acknowledge your passing and say that no matter how long or how far away you may be, you will always be close in our hearts.
We miss you every day, think of you every day, and talk about and to you every day. I haven't taken my Christmas tree down for the last two years, it's downstair in the living room and I only go down to adjust the heat and air, dust and mop which is seldom on all occasions. Today was an overcast day with constant drizzling rain which I do enjoy, although we haven't had rain here but two or three times since June.
Anyway, I lit the tree this morning and burned a couple of ancient -scented incense which held a certain significance, but I burned them because I had them and thought it would be nice to do. I started to type this this morning but got distracted, and I typed it minutes ago and somehow accidentally deleted most of it, so I am retyping it again. I think what I did the first time was more of what I had to say. Lol, I was in my "writers'" mode.
Anyway, my dear loved one, I just wanted to acknowledge your two-year passing on to the "Great Beyond"; Paradise, Heaven, the Place of Eternal Life where the Soul of who You are, lives on in the Glory of Your Light. We all had our moment today, I talked to all of your siblings, everyone was aware of the day since before the week begun. Just wanted you to know that Your Spirit lives on in the hearts of all of us still in our earthly bodies here, and we will forever remember and LOVE You, always. Farewell our loved one. Farewell.
Oh!, and by the way, the tree that I had planted in remembrance for you has been planted! I received the notification yesterday; it has been planted in Oregon.

Hi My Darling Brother! It's Father's Day and of course I'm thinking of you and Dad, too. Happy Heavenly Father's Day to you and Dad. I hope you guys are having an amazing time, especially since Mom is now there with you guys too. Surely you know that she left here in April the night of the 13th to be with you guys. I hope, or should I say, I know you guys were waiting for her so she would not be alone or afraid. I miss you dear brother and I think of you all the time, everyday really.
Please take care of Mom, it was so hard to see her the way she was and trying to stay here when she really needed to leave. I heard her say so many times when she didn't know that I was listening, that she needed to leave, that she needed to go. I tried telling her often that it was okay, that she had done a really good job and that we would all be alright. I feared that no one would be here with me when she passed and had prepared myself to be there with her when she did pass. I slept with her until there was no longer any room for her to be comfortable with me in with her. When the time came, it was beautifully peaceful, she passed with such grace. I was not alone with her, and she was not alone with just me. It was all three of us girls and Tisha, Shannan, Kayla and Khali Rose.
I didn't go to her funeral, I just didn't want to go, but many of the grandchildren and a lot of her relatives were there. Anyway, we all miss you guys every day and I know you guys miss us too. I just wanted to say Happy Heavenly Father's Day! I know how much you liked holidays and never missed an opportunity to call all of us. I miss those calls. Anyway, my love, thinking of you and of course lastly, just saying you know Ms. Price, her daughter Dot, and your ex, Shelia passed and so did Cornell, all within the past eight months. I try to keep in contact with your children, even before their mother passed, although your Alissa is the most responsive. But Brian and Kiana were at Moms' funeral and Brian was a pallbearer. Well, lol, this was a lot. You know that I don't write short notes, texts or have short conversations for that matter. So, again, until the next time. I Love You!

Henry touched it lot of lives. Mine especially. I remember when I first met him. His personality was larger than life. Though he was 3 years older than me, we became instant friends. Henry taught me how to fight (learned all my moves from him), taught me not to be afraid of anyone, he even taught me how to walk on my hands.. The last time I talked to him, even though we hadn’t chatted for a few years, he shared a few setbacks that he had encountered. I loved Henry. He was the older brother I never had. Ironically, he lived in Aurora, Colorado…a place that aI called home for 2 years. To the family…Henry is not gone, but is merely asleep. The body perishes, the LIFE FORCE IN US ALL, DOES NOT. Henry was/is one heck of a guy. Peace be with you.

Arthur, thank you for your beautiful memory shared of our brother Henry. It was a pleasure to hear how you felt about him and how he touched your life. He's with both of our parents now, our Mom passed in April of this year also, at the age of 94. And yes, I agree that " the body perishes, the Life Force in us All, does not". Peace be with you also.

My dear Brother, today here, would be (and is) filled with good wishes, memories and social media likes. And, more than likely something from me to you that I thought would surprise and bring joy would have arrived for you too. But, as the song "missing you goes, I'll find a way to get through, you are my brother, my friend and my love" this will have to do. Missing you and sending upon high a Happy Heavenly Wish for what I can only hope to be a Happy Birthday there for you with all of your (our) Loved Ones, celebrating this wish on this special day with you.
So, Today, for your Birthday, I'm giving the gift of planting a Tree in the earth, somewhere, really as everywhere, in the Country of your birth. It's being planted as a memorial for you. It is perhaps in some small way, symbolizing the everlasting beauty and presence of your Life on Earth and the freeing of Spirit as it grows upward in its beauty toward the Heavens.
I'll call the Tree "Heny Lee's Earthly Tree". It is an earthy gesture of eternal Love. I truly believe Love never dies, it lives forever in the spaces of the sacred places in the hearts and minds of those you Love, and those who Love you who are yet alive and remain in the Earth. And everywhere in the earth, in every place we see the beauty of nature's trees in all of their amazing glory; everywhere among them your tree will be remembered as flourishing too. We can think of you and, every branch will have their own story of you to tell.
Happy Heavenly Birthday my loving brother. I Love you, Big Sister.

My Dear Loving Brother:
It is hard to believe that it has been one year today since you were last here with us. My, how time does seem to fly, and it's almost unbelievable that it has been that much time to pass since I last talked with you on the phone. I can still hear your voice and recall so many things you use to say. So many things remind me of you; songs, movies, your uncontrollable laughter when you are telling a story while awaiting the punch line, finding that your laughter about it was funnier that the story you were trying to tell. Things we use to say to each other; how we would argue, joke, laugh, and reminiscing about the things we wanted to happen in our lives, especially our childhood days memories of what we called " talking about the cars".
I miss you! All of us miss you! I talk to you every day; I don't dare try to live without you. I know you are hanging out in your Glorious Light Every Day with Dad, Papa and Big Mama, Dwayne, Jerry, Tara, Uncle Leo, Larry, old Vera and the rest of the ones you knew and Loved who went before you. I know you have run into some old friends too, maybe a few even came after you. And, I hope you guys are having the greatest time ever to be had; the kind of times that every good thing you can ever dream of is only a thought away from happening. I hope you guys are Living in the Greatest Love Story to Ever Be Told.
Meanwhile, we who are alive and remain are keeping the Candles of your Lights burning in our Hearts, trying to do our best while missing you; knowing that one day we too, will be free of this earthly body binding us to this world, and will join you guys in the Glory of that Eternal Love Story. And in the meantime, I (All of us) WILL STILL THINK of YOU and LOVE YOU, EVERY DAY! LUVU! Your Big Sister

Henry, today early this morning Dean and I shared You with Big Mama, Dad, Cousin Oney, Cousin Queen, Aunt Grady and Carolyn Jo. Aunt Frances and Uncle Bud was in the midst too. We thought it would be nice to have Your Birthday as a Day they could share in Our Love, symbolically, as we remember this Day on which You were Born. Rest on Brother. You have Your Wings; You are Free and, You are Everywhere We are! Love You, Always and Forever!

Loving Henry
All of these years of your Life being a part of my Life, what am I supposed to do with the Love we have, and as the song I adore so much for its inspiring words ask: "How do I say goodbye to what we had?" Well, my answers to these questions are pretty simple at this point on this journey through what we know as Life in Time. "I will take with me the memories to be my sunshine" so they will be my shelter; Your Light in my Life to keep me from all the pain. I will continue Loving Henry, as I always have for the rest of my Life holding in that Love everything good in it. There will not be a day going forward where you are not with me; in my thoughts, laughter, conversations recalled, present conversations, photos, stories, and memories from others, even in my tears of sadness and joy.
I have come to realize that "Grief" has no protocol; no time frame to process the experience of the absence of a loved one from their temporary space where time here, allows no eternal place for our being here. But there is no such thing as we have to live without those who have gone from here before us. It does not matter how long or short their stay. So, know that as long as I, and your siblings, your family and loved ones remain, how long we Live here in this space little brother, you will Live with us too! I know this to be true because we can't help but think, recollect, and talk about you, every day. To the second question of, "how do I say goodbye to what we had?" The truth is, I can't! I won't! And, I don't have to!
We had our ways when we ended our conversations...we always said I love You, and you would say " see you in a minute", (and not only to me), and hearing them seemingly almost in the form of a question, I begin responding over the last few years adopting these words as my end," Laters Babe". So, all I can say when I end our conversations now, when I hear your voice and, the words coming naturally that will Live forever in me (us), "see you in a minute", my thoughts of you until the next time are still "Laters Babe!" And, this always make me smile. Forever in my Life, Love, and part of my Story of being here. Your big Sister.

This has been a difficult time for me, and I know that's not what you wanted from me, so here I go. I am still trying to wrap my mind and heart around the fact that you are at Eternal rest at this time. You were not just my brother, you were my best friend too, and I will forever be grateful for the time we shared together. Every time I hear the Isley's, Caravan of Love or Renee and Angela, You don't have to cry, I will always be thinking of you and our time together. I will continue to think about you and Love forever. I will always be your baby sister as you would call me. I have Loved you my whole life, and that's a long time to love someone, and you will hold that special place in my heart forever. I miss you so much. Rest, my dear brother until we meet again. IN A MINUTE!!!
