My father, as I, have nothing but respect for Tino. He was a very kind soul with a love for art that will continue on now that he is gone. Our prayers are with each and everyone who had anything to do with Tino. If anything is needed by his (our) extended family do not hesitate to contact me or Mom. God Bless You All.....Ernie Ladd

Denise, Tracey, Quentin, Linda and all of your family, I consider myself one of the very fortunate to have known Tino. For a number of years he was like a father to me and I think sometimes I even pretended that he was. The kindness and love that he showed not only me but others will stay in my heart forever. I'm truly sorry for your loss and I know all of you will miss him dearly. May you find comfort in your memories and that he is in a peaceful place. My love, thoughts, prayers and deepest sympathy are with all of you. Love, Cindy

To Denise, Quintin, and Tracey God bless eaach of you for the love and care that you gave your dad. Tino was blessed and he knew that. You could hear the love and pride when he spoke about each of you. We must all be thankful for the time we had with Tino. He was quite an interesting, loving, and unique person. He was quite a dreamer---we all need a little of that quality, too. My prayers go out to your mom. Love, Margaret

To Patrick Oh, the miles you have driven, but I am sure you would have gone many more to see Tino. He always looked forward to your visits. I am certainly glad that you were able to see him several weeks ago. God bless you. My prayers and thoughts go out to you and your family. Please keep in touch. Love, Margaret

To Star I wanted to tell you that you were very, very special to Poppy. Oh, how he loved you. When you and he visited the Flea Market, he would always have a storyy about something you two had done together. I know you will miss him, but Poppy will always be near--right in your heart. Remember the good times, the fun times. You had a special Poppy. Love, Margaret

Denise, Thanks for letting me know of your Dad's passing. Hope that you, your mom, and your daughter and other family members are well. It sounds like your dad was quite a man and I know that you will miss him deeply. May God give you comfort in this time of sorrow.

Hi Denise, Thanks so much for including me in your news at this important time in your life. I am so sorry he could not live forever. I am glad he lived long enough for the two of you to have this time together and share love. You now have the satisfaction of knowing that you were there for your Dad and made his last years and good and special as possible. Now to honor him you have to live the best life possible. I want to help you. Please plan to stay at my house if you or you and Star come to Raleigh to seek jobs. The best nights are Sunday night through Tuesday nights until June 30th - after that any night is fine. Another lead and possibility - there is a freeze on hiring in High point - but that could change any time Even if no job opening - you can interview in high point and have your application in there ready to go. we know sometimes even when there is a lead - a job might open that is not posted. Fred Baggett, my boyfriend -has told me he will meet with you and introduce you when ever you are ready. He says the city trys to hire people with records. I also will call the mayor - who I lnow personally. I care very much about you and think you deserve some networking help becasue you have proven yourself over and over as a dependable worker and smart in school. home 782-9366 work 866-5459 cell 605-9011 Please send me your e mail love you, Carolyh
