“To TeeMar’s family: I had known TeeMar for years. He was a fun kind of guy. He always had a smile on his face. I had the opportunity to talk with him when he was in the nursing home. He was a good friend. He will be in my thoughts and prayers. God speed.”
“T-mar was a very sweet man. He is at rest and in a better place. My prayers go out to the Beverly and the rest of the family. “
“Sorry to hear about T-mar, always enjoyed talking with him around l’town, especially at Bailey’s restaurant. r.i.p. T-mar”
” I had known T-Mar for years when we lived in Compton..R-I-P “
“T-mar was my best friend. We worked together for years, he was the god father to both my children. He treated them like a father, There was no better man on this earth. You will surely be missed. Rest in peace T-Mar”
“T-Mar was a very nice man. I got to know him in the late 90’s and with every story he told we found another person we both knew. T-Mar was full of stories and the most nicest man anyone would want to meet. I enjoyed visiting him when he was in Cedar Lane. He will surely be missed.”
