Dear Wally,

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all the members of the Popasmoke Org for your support for me in trying to find out where my Ugly Angel Lantie Harris was burried and how he really died. I found him after 37 years and this past Oct was able to visit his grave.

To Lantie:

Did you really leave me again?
After all the seasons I spent waiting
Watching out the window
Listening at the door
Waiting for the news of your return
For the news that you realized that someone important was waiting for you.

A whole lifetime I've been waiting.
I can't believe you aren't coming back
I can't believe I'm suppose to stop waiting
I can't beleive you left me again.

I thought when I found his grave I would be able to say goodbye and close this chapter. What I realize is that I love him as much today as I did the day I met him. I got to say goodbye to my Ugly Angel, but need to thank all of you who helped me find him and for the hours of questions I asked, and just being there as his friends. Thank you.

Katie Mullen Campbell
