I was one of "Jay's" nurses and he was such a pleasant man, always so kind and never down. Even during his last days he was an inspiration to me. Jay will be one of those patients I will remember forever. It was truly a pleasure taking care of him. I am extremely sorry I won't be able to make the services in Mississippi tomorrow, but please know I am there in spirit. On behalf of third floor, we are sorry for your loss and will pray for your family.

I worked with Jr on several jobs over the past four years and we became such good friends. He always kept in touch and was always there when you needed a friend. He had such a beautiful smile, and beautiful heart that I will never forget. I always looked forward to going into work to see him, we had so many laughs together, and a freindship that I cherish so much. Even though I know he is rejoicing now being in the presence of his son that he so longed to see again, page 1 / 4 Alvin R. McLeod, Jr Provided by Freeman Funeral Home and his master, I will miss him here on earth, and can't wait to see him again someday. Joy, I can only imagine what you must be going through, but know that I will keep you in my prayers. Thank you for helping my friend through his difficult times, he oftern mentioned how he loved being in Lafayette and with you. Because of my work in Texas, I will not be able to be at the services, but I will be praying for comfort and peace for all of you during this sad time. The hardest part of any friendship is when it is time to say goodbye, and even though I wished I could make you stay, I know I got to let you spread your wing s and fly.......... I love you my firend.....<br /><br /><hr size=1 /> <strong>Darryl Sainsbury Sr.</strong> das_sr@yahoo.com October 20th, 2011<br />Alvin, Kay, Cheryl, Paula, and family- I am so sorry for your loss.

McLeod, Jr Provided by Freeman Funeral Home <strong>Kneemail</strong> kneemail@yahoo.com - October 20th, 2011<br />To the Alvin R. McLeod, Jr. Family One day there will be no more sorrow neither crying; for the Lord Himself shall wipe all tears away and this will become a reality. I awoke to the sound of a trumpet, My body had been changed in a blink of an eye, I was arrayed in the finest white linen, My body became weightless and started to rise. Jesus Christ had returned as He promised, For eternity I would now live with Him, I smiled as I rose up through the air, To meet the one who died for my sin. The gates swung open as we entered in All humanity was speechless from the beauty inside, The street was purest gold like the Bible record, The city was as long as it was wide. There were flowers of every color, City walls were constructed with the finest gems, There were mansions built around a crystal sea, Angels could be heard singing glorious hymns. There were no signs for handicap parking, There were no hospitals or locks on the doors, No wheelchair ramps or funeral homes, Death and sickness were gone forever more. Hate and prejudice was a thing of the past, There was a peace like I had never known, We worshipped Jesus with hands lifted high, As we all gathered together around His throne. We sang songs about the blood of the Lamb About His unfailing mercy and grace, All the people worshipped no one stood in awe As they looked upon His face. There is a day when this will become a reality, So keep your faith in Jesus Christ every day, He has gone to prepare a place for us, He alone is the truth, the life, and the way.

There are friends that come along once in a lifetime, the kind you cherish and know that no matter what problem comes about, you always can count on that friend to bring a smile to your face and a peace in your heart....you were that kind of friend, a very special person. My heart is just breaking for Paula, Dillon, and for your entire family. I will miss your sweet smile and contagious laughter! I am truely a better person for having known you, Alvin. I am comforted knowing that you are with Chad. I know that his presence was always with you. Please know that you will forever be loved and missed. I love you, Alvin.

We are just finding out about the sad loss of Jr. This is such shocking news. Dirk & I worked with Jr. on an Ardent project not too long ago. He was such a pleasure to be around... one of the sweetest souls I've ever known. He talked about how much he loved his family. He was especially proud of Dillon, and missed Chad so much. Earth has lost yet another precious, loving, good person... Heaven has gained a bright new star, a beautiful angel. Jr., thanks for the loving kindness you showed to us all. You will be so missed. Prayers are going up for your family. Love ~ Dirk & Chyrle P.S. Please say hi to my buddy Terry "Barbie" Logan for me when you see him up in Heaven. I miss him a lot too. Thanks!
