My deepest condolences to the family, to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Let the memories keep you in perfect peace and remember the good times, family you have been through a lot but know God is always present to carry you when you aren't able too. Weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in morning. Just know that you have prayer warriors that are standing in the gap for you all and will lift you in prayer You are not alone

My deepest condolences to the family of Avon was my mother's neighbor before she passed away and she always spoke about all the manners he had and I myself have to say yes he indeed had good manners he will truly be missed by everyone on East 39th Street and he will forever be in our hearts for his kind and gentle spirit. Gone to soon but you take your rest because God knows what's best.
