Freddie Johnson

July 26, 2016

To my beautiful family of Cousin Honey, I sending to you our heartfelt sympathies in the passing of a lovely lady. She was special to my family especially my late father Freddie Patterson. Cousin Honey's mother Robert Alice Patterson Hammond and my Great Grandmother Cecilia Patterson Alexander were sisters. Our Cousin Melissa asked that I write a poem in loving memory of Cousin Honey and I will be sure that you all have it very soon. Truly sorry we have lost connection of our family unity through time but I know Grandpa Iaasic and Eliza Cunningham Patterson, Honey's grandparents are smiling down from heaven. Lovingly yours, Cousin Freddie Patterson Johnson, Atlanta, Georgia
