I am sending my love and prayers to Uncle Fonnie's family durning this difficult time. He was the baby boy of the family just as my mom was the baby girl of the family. She was crazy about him and Wanda, and enjoyed talking about sports. Now they are TOGETHER again. He will truly be missed but not forgotten.

Daddy,
Although these words are now written, I just wanted to say, How much I'm going to miss you, each and everyday. Before you made your journey, I whispered in your ear, how I loved you so much and you replied, "Oh Yes" so dear. I also told you how glad I was to have you as my Dad,and not having you here with me makes me Oh so sad. There's no more pain or suffering where you are, and for this I am glad, I'll always cherish and remember the good times that we've shared. I know that you're safe within Jesus' arms, away from misery in this ol' troubled world, and one day when we meet again, you'll see your baby girl. Within this final note with sincere and heartfelt expression, I thank you Daddy for being in my life you've taught me valuable lessons. I'll never forget.
I'll Always Love You

To Wanda and the Lawson Family, I would like to express my sincere condolences on the recent passing of "Uncle Fonnie" as I so fondly called him. You were truly fortunate to have a man such as "Uncle Fonnie" in your lives. No comfort is quite enough to replace the loss. Know that I love you and have you in my prayers. May God bless you and the family at this difficult time.
Much Love

We thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday.
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake.
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our heart.
