I was so sorry to hear of the passing of Sylvester. Even though I had not seem him in a long time, I had good memories of him at Mt. Pleasant. The healing process will be hard, remember the good times, he would want all of you to be happy.
Take your rest! I remember the days when we (The Young Singers) were on program with the Spiritual Wonders. To the family the pain and suffering is gone. Look to God and go to God for your strength. He will be missed. Until we meet again Mr. Pokey rest on!
One of the first people I met when I started to work at Tyson in 1984. We had a lot of good times there. He was one of the finest people you would ever want to meet.
We have been blessed to have Cousin Pokey as part of our "Right Now"; God has another job for him now as Lead Singer of Heaven's Praise Team. Our family is truly blessed by his life and the forever remembrance of him. May God continue to cover our family and keep the Armstrong legacy strong.
My dear cousin, I feel that we all still need you to be here on earth with us, but I know that God needed you more. So I dare not be selfish to wish that God kept you around just a little while longer, for I know that you're no longer suffering and you are in a better place. No more sickness, pain, taking trips in and out of hospitals, and taking treatments. You fought a good fight, ran a good race, and now have finished your course. I know that God will welcome you with open arms and tell you well done my good and faithful servant. You will always hold a special place in my heart Pokey.
