Prince Family
Danico, So sorry for your, and the family’s, loss with the passing of your father.
This hurts my heart. I’m sorry I wasn’t able to attend the services and pay my respect… When I found out it was the day of the funeral and I was attending another service for my nephew. RIP Bill……. May God be with the Harvey family in this time of bereavement…
