Yesterday our world loss a very, very, very, special, "Human Being"
and to those of us who were born in a place called Minneapolis,
Minnesota we also loss a very, very, very, special, "Minnesotan"
as well, Prince.

My older sister and Prince went to and both graduated from
Minneapolis Central High School back in 1976 and our families
each attended and belonged to the same Church as all of us
were growing up as well, Sabathani Baptist Church.

So today my heart is broken, but for as long as I live, I will never,
ever, ever, forget about, "Prince's Purple Reign" and I guess this is
also what it now sounds like when grown men such as myself, and,
"Doves Cry" as well.

So inclosing and in the final words of, The Man, The Husband,
The Father, The Son, The Brother, The Friend, The Activist,
The Businessman, The Humanitarian, The Mentor, The Actor,
The Boss, The Artist, The Musician, The Writer, The Leader,
The Entertainer, The Composer, The Producer, The Director,
The Visionary, The Messenger, The Prophet, The Poet, The Idol,
The Superstar, The Genius, The Icon, and, "The Legend" himself,
Prince:

Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called life

Electric word life
It means forever and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here to tell you
There's something else

The after world
A world of never ending happiness
You can always see the sun, day or night....

Take me away....

Prince Rogers Nelson (June 7, 1958 – April 21, 2016)
