I remember when Yvett would bring him by the house for Phyliss to watch him . He use to play with my son Saeed. I always used to tell Phyllis and Yvett that he was such a handsome boy and well mannered. He and my son played very well together. I look at his picture and I see he grew up to be even more handsome as an adult. Phyllis, Yvette and Alan, if there is anything I can do, please let me know. I want you guys to know that God called home an Angel. My God Bless Renee Barber Lee Sep 24, 2009 Yvett, Phyllis and Alan, You have my heartfelt sympathy.
