Rest in Love, and continue to watch over us. We love and miss you baby daddy and I promise you will receive justice in God's timing. Thank you for giving me a beautiful baby, thank you for loving my youngest like she was yours, thank you for doing the best you could with what you had. My only solace is that I know your not having to navigate a system that made your condition worse, and that you no longer have to go through that. I still remember your voice, your laugh, you being you. You was really my friend and when you left I lost my only friend. You will never be forgotten baby.
