ReplyDeleteThis is very shocking news to all of us and please except our hearts and prayers go out you and yours at this time of sorrow.

We are so sad. The FAMU family shares your grief. My prayers are with you (to the family and friends of Antoine). I pray that God give you peace and that you find comfort in God's ability to give you strength through the difficult time. Your memories of Antoine will always be beautiful. I was one of Antoine's Resident Assistants (RA). He was a kind, mannerable and likeable young man. He will be missed. Please try to stay strong and let your loving memories of the time you shared with Antoine be a comfort to you. He had a beautiful smile and a beautiful heart, I'm sure that's what he'd want you to remember. Know that your suffering, in some amount, is shared by those whose paths he came across. May God richly bless you, I pray that Jesus carry some of your burden at this time. Amen.
