Dear Aunt Pris, I would have done this back in Febuary, but I had a hard time me and David both in trying to bring up this site anyway I found it and my heart was so broken when Sammie called to tell us I tried to get to you all without fail, but it did not work out I love you so much. The last thing Uncle did for me was to be sure mommas coffee and boudan was good and cold for Chris and I to retuen to Columbia. I loved Uncle Ponta so much he was such a great Uncle to me . God Bless all of you. Love forever Your Niece Debbie
