Pooh will be greatly missed. He touched many and was a great inspiration for many people. I am praying for each of you family. Shondria, I know losing a brother is extremely challenging. Look high to the hills from where your strength comes. Pooh is free now to spread his wings and lead the Heavenly Choir along side Little Tony forever, but His warm smile and beautiful music will forever remain in our hearts.

Much love and prayers,
Gianna and Angelle.

Condolences to our family for yet another loss. Kay sorry for health issues I was unable to travel for services. However, my son, Kennyth Randle, Jr was in attendance to represent. You and "Man" are in my prayers, as always. Remember that Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to lend comfort in times like this, let Him in.

Going to sure miss Pooh´s warm smile. I hope I brought him the same joy he brought me every time we saw one another. Rest in heaven, child, in the land of "no more". Love, Auntie Phyllus.
