To my brother,
Luther AKA “Sgt” was an absolute great friend to those who were blessed to know him. He was one that would give the shirt off his back if he had to. For those who needed a place, he would let you with him. He shared all he could. He will be dearly missed.
I personally want to thank everyone who assisted with Luther’s transition, Robert Wilson, for aiding in his care, Lena Chase for making it easier to walk through this journey and Pat Ingram for your contribution and to Joshua and my family for the many visits with him and helping to provide his needs. - Your baby sister, April
