Larry my father was charismatic playboy type that tried to be the best father to me.
He died of COPD complications.
My uncle Tommy was one of my favorite uncles that always made me laugh.
He OD in our family home.
My grandmother Grace was strict, funny and I was her favorite grandchild that she always shared snacks with.
She went from having a stomach virus to being in cardiac arrest, which led to her death.
Jamel, my brother’s annoying lover that I was secretly fond of. We would gossip and eat cookies together.
He died of HIV complications
My brother, my twin in a sense. He was the girly girl and I was the tomboy. He was go- to for advice(even though it was crazy), gossip, fashion tips and the one that knew all the words to a Mary J. Blige song.
He died of a broken heart and HIV complications.
My grumpy mean spirited aunt who had almost an equally slick mouth as me just recently died.
I remember them
The good
the bad
the laughs
the smiles
I will always remember them
