My Stevie, it took me awhile to gather the words but today I'm feeling a way. Your gone now from this life but it doesn't feel real. I know your dancing in heaven but I still think you will call, come around the corner or text me. We had a special bond like no other. Although you were my nephew, you were also my friend and in a way another son. We hung out so many different ways. We went to festivals, we traveled the road together Galesburg, Springfield me and you. One thing I will never forget is I took you to many concerts that you loved and talked about over and over for so long. You stayed at my house so many times and although we had unlimited fun, we had serious conversations. We would talk and talk about many personal things. I told you I would always be there for you if you needed me. You were such a light in my life, you were a good man and I loved you for being you. No more struggles and pain. No more shame or secrets. You had a big heart full of love and laughter that touched everyone. God put you in with me just two days prior to you leaving this world for a reason. We laughed and talked that very day and I'll never forget it. The next day you called me and asked me to pray for your mother. I told you I would definitely pray for her and that I would even call her and I did. I talked to her for quite awhile and I smiled because I knew when you saw her again she would let you know I talked to her and that would make you feel good. Then you were gone. Just didn't make since to me. Now I must accept the unimaginable somehow. So while I try to do that, if you see me confused and lonely, would you help me, pray for me and be another angel in my life because I will miss you.

Remembering my experiences around “my cousin” Stevie……. Stevie was one of the most humorous and comical cousins to be around. He was funny. He made me laugh. He could also “rib you” (meaning: “rank you” or “joke” about your characteristics) for a LONG period of time “NON-STOP”, until your stomach would hurt from laughing so long and hard. Because he was “quick-witted” with it. He was “smart” with it. One summer, long ago, my grandparents took me, Stevie, Brian and Clifford to Atascadero, CA to visit Uncle Gerald. And before we could make it to Uncle Gerald’s house, Stevie started “ribbing me” in the hotel room that we all had just checked into. He ribbed me so bad he had me in tears. Then, once we got to Uncle Gerald’s house, Stevie & Brian did the “Hambone” for Uncle Gerald & Aunt Katherine. And those “funny memories” of Stevie go on and on. To: “Dollie”, “Vernon”, “Gwen”, “Taylor”, “Steven”, “Ariah” and ALL of the aunts, uncles, cousins, extended family and friends who knew and loved him and those who may be saddened by his Spiritual Transition …..I wish you peace in your mind and in spirit (on the interior). #StevieGaveLaughter #Jovial #Exuberant “Di-Di” (1st Cousin)

To my cousin Dolly and the entire family, I am deeply moved by the loss of our beloved Stevie. I know I didn't spend much time with him. However, the time that we did share is deeply rooted in fond memories (mostly of the summer Dolly, Stevie, & mama Brown stayed the summer at our home in New York). Rest well my cousin...rest well. You will always remain in our hearts. James H. Wright
