Wassup Arnold,

Broer.......in behalf of your Blood overseas,( Frauke,Francis and Me ),I would like to express our condolences to your loss.

I remember,as if it was only yesterday,at the Brother Smiths' -- Mother,s funeral,how you covered my back Arnold,when some City
Graveyard Employees,started giving me a bunch of lip,when I stated that only the family members should place the Brother Smiths'
Mother,s coffin over the gravesite.Arnold....you wanted to send some of these " Turkeys " to the hospital !

Arnold,unfortunately I,m not intelligent enough to say " those words " which could relieve you of your grief..
At such moments,like this however,I,m always made aware,that our stay on this side of Lifes' Ocean,is actually a drop in the bucket,
when compared to Eternal Life on the other side of the Ocean ! What,s 66 or 67 years placed against Everlasting Life ?

To repeat a famous Brother,s Words " Free At Last,Free At Last,Thank God Almighty,I,m Free At Last " !

Especially at this time Arnold,Peace to you and your Family......

Amandla

Frauke,Francis and Me
