So Although I Was Whooping & Hollering With Glee, Joy, & Xcitement..., It Was W/Heavy Heart I Celebrated This Victory... Let Me Walk U Thru My Timeline...

Last Friday Night I Stopped In @ Loft 47 To Celebrate A Lil' Pre-Bday Party For 1 Of My Homegirlz!!! I Had Tickets 2 The NJ Nets Game That Night & The Loft Is Right Across The Street, So It Made Perfect Sense 4 Me 2 Go Hang Out!!!

After The Game I Had A Potna Playing W/His Band In Hoboken, NJ & I Was Gonna Go Check Him Out!!! Instead I Came On Home & Shut It Down!!! My Phone Was Blowing Up, Facebook Was Blowing Up W/Msg's From Key Folks Asking Me 2 Call Them ASAP!!!

I Woke Up Saturday Morning, Logged On Facebook Saw Some Commentary, Checked My Phone & Found Out That My Younger Brother Had Passed Away... I Was In A Surreal Place As I Had 2 Process This Data... It Was Like I Was Dreaming Bcuz It Just Didn't Seem Possible...

He Lived In Albany, NY & Was Found On His Kitchen Floor Within 2 Days Of His Passing... Thankfully People Up There Felt Sumthin' Was Amiss & Checked In On Him!!! The Police Were Summoned, The Fire Dept Broke The Door In As It Was Chain Locked From The Inside & Discovered Him There... The Word Is He Had Heart Failure...

So I Got That Call U Never Want 2 Get It & Put A Whole Different Spin On My Soopabowl Celebration... I Went Up 2 His Apartment Yesterday 4 The 1st Tyme & All I Could Feel Was His Presence In The Air All Around Me!!!

My Brotha Was A Lot Like Felix Unger From The Odd Couple & His Place Was Immaculate!!! He Was A Clothes/Fashion Horse With More Than 25 Boxes Of Shoes In The Closet!!! Now I Am In The Process Of Going Through All Of His Stuff As I Close Out His Life!!! LQQKS Like The Funeral Will B This Saturday In Nyack, NY Where The Rest Of His Father's Family Is From (we're half brothers 4 the record)...

As I Sat In His Place It Hit Me That His Father Larry Sr. (Late 40's) Passed Away In The Mid 80's..., Our Older Sister Carolyn (38) Passed Away In 91..., Our Mother Cora (53) Passed Away In 92..., & Now My Brother Larry Jr. aka Fats (44) Passes Away Here In 2012... That Leaves Me As The Sole Survivor Of My Own Immediate Family!!! DAMN!!!
