Happy Heavenly Birthday Da! As the years continue to go by without you I'm learning how to cope with it day by day. There is not a day I don't think about you, but I'm forever grateful for every year I was blessed to spend with you. Just know your baby girl got it.

With all that being said in his honor we are launching a scholarship campaign. So anyone that would like to honor my dad on his birthday we are asking donations in the amount of $21. That $21 represents his birthday. Our goal is to gift as many young people as we can, to further their education!

The last year 2 years we were able to give 8 scholars, each totaling $500 to deserving scholars and every year we want to continue to pour into our youth.

Just know I will forever honor his legacy and I will not let his voice fade!

Screaming all the way to the big blue skies Happy Birthday to my hero 🎉🎊🎂. They say after you lose someone the first is always hard. I shred a few tears, but I'm also joyful your are with your Heavenly father. At times it's hard to process you aren't here but I pray everyday for strength and I have a strong support system behind me.
