I remember when you called my husband, who was pastoring Greater Providence at the time, and told him that the Lord had led you to our church to be the Youth Pastor. I remember how thankful and elated we were and still are. You are definitely led by the Spirit. He has anointed your ministry and blessed you abundantly for your obedience. NY2M ...

I don't know cuzz..You wanna go there b4 we became cousins.OK.... In Junior High school (Dodd) first day of school I bumped into Simone ( your girl at the time) and she said that I grabbed her in a bad way. So She said she was going to get you to beat the you know what out of me... So my boy Tyrone ( your boy as well) was with me and just laughed... Read More at her hysterically. The whole day I was ducking you, and you were looking for me. We didn't know who each other was... But finally after school Tyrone came over to me with you laughing even more hysterically. I didn't know you and you didn't know me. He introduce you to me and we still didn't know who each other was. Tyrone saw Simone out the corner of his eye and burst out laughing. She ran over to you and said whats wrong with you, your not gonna handle this. And we just all burst out laughing.

I was drawn to build with another brother who had the same lust for information, chip on his shoulder, aggressive nature, (at the time) and quick witt! You made a thinking brother want to think more, a writing brother want to write better (and like Biggie and Jay-Z folks HE WROTE NOTHING DOWN), and a loving brother express it without fear. I remember Bloodshot Red, Self Allah Q Universal Allah Now, my dude, and my mellow my man.... but still no milk for you, Lol!

I want to thank everyone that responded to this note. Emma and I met with our students at New Yu and read the comments to them. ALL OF THE COMMENTS. So the good, the bad and the ugly was shared. We believe in being transparent with our students because we want them to know that it os God that has transformed us. We didn't do it ourselves. I want ... Read Morethese students to understand that God has so many great things planned for them. I want them to know that the challenges they face aren't designed to break them, but make them. I want them to see themselves as leaders NOW and LATER. I want them to understand that being a Christian doesn't mean that you are perfect. It means that we understand that we are imperfect beings that serve a perfect God. Not only has He SAVED us but He CAN and WILL SANCTIFY us. Thank you for helping us reach and engage youth for Christ. I love you all.

Anyhoooo, I remember cookouts/birthday parties/etc. at the Coates residence. Cousins there : ) I remember most of all....Jr. High School...Dodd....in the cafeteria. You were soooo mean 2 me ... Read Morein a silent way around this particular time. However, your mood escalated 1 day at your lunch table next to mine. Dirty looks, Smashing food trays, Kick'n chairs, Say'n mean things, Yell'n a bit, Making a scene for those around us, Getting up & walking around with your chest stuck out...Based on our history I didn't understand it. You stopped speaking to me too! NOW I know why! How Cute? However, you didn't have to act like that....all you had to do was talk/tell me : ) You are a cool dude! Always have been (despite of fighting LOL) Stay You, Stay Cool, Man of God and don't EVER change! Share this with Yu 2 : ) Love you man! One!

ur were always cool. Someone I could talk to and was glad to have as a friend. I remember a fight here and there but if I'm not mistaken , usually because you were provoked. People would always underestimate you . Of course, u know I'll never forget you taking the lead in chasing girls around the portables...lol . the good ole days : ) There was something about you that always led to think fondly of you so I'm glad FB helped me find you again.

Its been a long time Larrry. I remember you as being very cool, always calm. it never seemed that you was bothered by much. if something was going on with you, you could never tell. I was an athlete in school, and i remember we use to always talk basketball, and football. especially basketball. You was always knowledgable on things, and you was ... Read Morealways willing to help someone out. I remember you being nice with the lyrics(real Hip Hop). I am a police officer(NYPD) and i work with the youth also. Let the kids know they encounter alot of obstacles in there life. as long as they work hard , get there education, stay leveled headed, and dont let the streets get them, them can achieve anything they want in life. The opportunity is there, they just have to want it. Keep doing your thing Brother.

Something good, something bad... Bro, we have so MANY it's hard to choose! Okay, I remember the first comic you gave me. It had no cover, but it was a DC. I think it was missing the first page, too, or it ripped off, or something. I remember the first time even hearing about the Incredible Pulp. You told me (before I even had a chance to go to the... Read More shot) that I had to take my jacket off in order to go through the back issue bins. I remember doing that on a COLD winter day. I remember hanging out in the roller rink, after it closed. You, me, and Jomo. I remember a fight in 3rd grade because I stiff-armed Carleton during recess. (I stopped stiff-arming after that, and just ran faster!) I remember trading comics with you. I remember you had me pronouncing Rogue's name as Rague for a while. I remember you coming to my house so my father could drop us off at martial arts practice with Professor Griff. I remember you coming over to my house so we could go play on Bunker Hill. SO MUCH STUFF!
