Hi ladies I wanted to tell ya’ll how much I love you. Thank you for being here for me. You have brought pleasure into my life in the short time I lived and known ya’ll. Ya’ll are very special not just to me but to the unit. There are so many lives that yall have touched over there that yall don’t even know about that guys talk about in the back. I am at peace now with and going to be with Jesus and my family. I am going to miss those pancakes and those old time black and white shows. Where I am going everything will be in color. There is a lot of this I don’t understand but the system is not completely right. It’s not completely wrong but, it is something that has to be done until something better comes along. But, I am at peace with that and I am ok and I can live with that. The 15 or 16 years that I have been on death row I have never had a case that doesn’t mean that I am a good guy or nothing I have the Lord in my heart and He has given me peace I will be honest with you. I am going to go tell your mother and David I am glad you made it and you didn’t pass out on the line. OK Warden I am ready.

Yes Sir, I would like to thank the Shape Community Center for all their support. I would like to thank all those overseas, Italy and France, for their support for the death row prisoners. I would also like to apologize to Lori for the second time for her husband dying at my hand. To the White family and to Tashell for not being there, I Love you. I’m finished Warden you may proceed.
