I know I haven’t posted since January 22, 2024. That’s because unfortunately, my father, Orlando Rainey passed away the next day on January 23, 2024, at the age of 64, so the rest of my family and I had to plan his funeral which took place at Omps Funeral Home, South Chapel on February 1, 2024. Below are some pictures from the funeral as well as memorabilia:

Anyway, I hope I was able to make his last months enjoyable. As of right now, I’m planning on moving me and my younger brother to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, not far from my father’s childhood home.
