My brother-in-law, Thomas Stringer, treated me as well as, and sometimes
better than my own blood brothers. I will never forget learning from him. He
shared personal insights and knowledge of the world from his education and
personal experiences that I still deeply appreciate. Knowing Thomas Stringer
has enriched my life. I will sorely miss him.
I deeply regret that I can not be there for the Memorial Service. My
condolences, prayers, and love go to the family, especially to Twlya, who was
always at his side for the 18 short years that I was lucky to know him.
