"Dearest to my Heart
"Poppa" Bill
Hello my loving and caring Brother from another Mother. May God Jehovah bless you in His wonderful Son, Jesus' Name. I must say, your love for me is very real. Thank you dearly for the birthday love . The card made my year. No one but you, my love, had enough love in their heart to send me a card but you. I wish I could show you how much I truly appreciate you and all that you do for me. So, I ask God in prayer to bless you for the love you have in your heart for so many of us that don't have family love. Thank you for being my family. I love you ever so much. Well, let me get to this hard love letter you wrote me. Oh and by the way, I got your post card also - "Cowboy Stadiums". My love, you told me to send you some money slips. You can't find no money slips nowhere. I do believe they have stopped printing them due to electronics and computer. So, you may have to send it by wire. So much for sending me some money. God bless you to do what you can. Anything will help. Poppa, thank you for letting me lay my head on your shoulders and tell you my problems. Well, my problem is I have an FI-1. Not two, but a one. The best parole one can get out of TDCJ and I'm not home yet. Thank you dearly for reminding me that Jesus is right here with us. Made me smile. :-) I love you my "Poppa*". Please don't get dead on my ass. Take it easy. :-) No, my love, ain't no pity party. And yes, God want me to be right at home. He gave me a FI-1. No, baby, the system want me to go home. That's why they changed my FI-18 to a FI-4; then to a FI-1.
No, I don't receive that I may have to stay til 2023. God don't make no mistakes. He gave me a FI-1 to go home and that's what I am claiming. Poppa*, what you mean, I'm not scheduled to go home? You must not know what a FI-1 mean and yes they have made a decision. I have a FI-1. Read the Feb Ecco. It will tell you what every FI mean. A one is the best. Maybe the people you talked to is looking at my old date. Yes, you are so right. I will be set free when God tell them that's it. God have told them to let me go. They are being hard-headed. Just think how many times has God told us to do something. :-) Anyway, you know I got faith and I have peace to know I have a friend that truly love me. My love, you know, if anyone pick on me, I know how to tell my Father in Heaven in His Son, Jesus' Name.........
Read Ps. 83. I have to love you and you love me. For that to happen, I got my mind on going home. O.K. I understand, you ain't going to make no call for me. I'm not going to ever ask you to do nothing for me that I wouldn't do for you. This is Ben Reid 1/2 Way House address: Ben Reid, 10950 Beaumont Hwy 90, Houston, TX 77078.
P.S. Write or try to get their number. It's a free 1/2 Way House. My love, God Bless You. I'm out of paper. I'll write more when I get paper. - T.W.
P.S. My love, please send me a lil something if you can. If not, I still love you dearly. :-) God bless. You are my Best Friend. I love you, Poppa*"

Poppa*
Hello. May this letter find you in the best of spirit and in God given health and peace of mind. I must say, it's always a pleasure to receive a most wanted letter from you, my love. Thank you for loving me. You will always be at the top of my prayer list. I'm happy for you that your job is coming along well. God is truly good to you. He has a plan for your life. May he bless you to understand His plan. Well, as for myself, I'm doing good. I try not to worry about me as to when am I going home. I try to pray and give all that to our Father through His Son, Jesus. I cast all my cares over on Him for He cares for me. He's working it out. I don't want to repeat all the things you said about the Halfway House, but it's all true. They want money before you move in and the State houses is so full. So, to say all in all, I'm learning a big, big lesson on patience. I'm standing on the Word in James 1:3,4
Knowing that the testing of my faith produces patience. So, I must let patience have its perfect work that I may be perfect and complete lacking nothing. Poppa*, I need me somebody. I'm so lonely. I don't have no one to share my feelings with...
.....I see you have come to realization on how to love an inmate that's going to be on lock for sometime. You can love him with only so much......So, as long as you are happy, so am I. Baby, send me something. I haven't had no money in two months. My sister fell behind in a bill or two trying to help my brother. So, anything you can send me will be appreciated. And you can keep a tab. I will pay you back when I get out soon. :-) Oh. My sister called Huntsville. They told her I have a spot. I'm just waiting on a bed. That made my day. That was good news to me. I love me some Poppa*.
Love always, T.W.
P.S. Don't let it take you so long to write back."

"Dearest Brother to my Heart,
"Poppa*"
Hello my brother in Christ. How may I ask are we doing? Fine, I do hope and pray all is well with you. It makes my stay a better day when I receive a letter from you, my love. May God bless you for all you do for me and many more; even though I get kind of jealous to know that others is getting your love as well. But, it's a good jealous. Not a selfish one. "You dig?".............
...............Well as I can see, you've been blessed to find another job. Praise God! Something is always better than nothing. Well, as for myself, Poppa*, I'm outta there. I don't know if I'm going or coming. I'm so, so close to being depressed. I can't get out of this prison and I've been given a FI-1..........Poppa*, these people don't find you no Halfway House. You have to find one yourself and I can't find one. The one that wrote me back, I sent the post card to the Parole Counselor and she told me she sent it back to me but I never got it back. So, now, I'm looking for the address. The name of the place is Harmly House in Houston. They accepted me, but I must request for an application so I sent everything to the Parole Counselor expecting her to request for an application. She writes me back telling me I need to do the application. But, I don't have the address. I gave it all to her. So, that's where I am. I feel as though I'm never going home. Poppa*, do you have any suggestions? If so, please let me in on them. Oh well, other than that, ain't nothing really going on with me. As I can see, you got in touch with Lil Agg. I'm happy he's doing okay. You never said if he made parole or not. Praying he did.............
..........My love, I sent you a letter on Dec. 8 and it came back. That's why I was asking why you haven't wrote me. So, I'm sending this letter back with this one. I thought you had moved out of the Half-Way House. By the way, Poppa*, why don't you get me in that Half-Way House with you. You see I don't have no where else to go. Can't you see my brother, I need help to get out this pen. I don't care where it is as long as it's not here. But, if you try and get in touch with the Harmly House in Houston, first, there's another one taht's called Ben Reeves in Houston............. I truly need your help. In my last letter, I asked you to call some Half-Way Houses. Please, Bill, Call.
The Harmly House and Ben Reeves House. I don't know if I'm spelling them right. But, this is what I need. Someone to help me get out. I've had my F.I. for 2 years and I'm still locked up. Poppa*, call my sister and help her to understand how she must help me by calling the Halfway Houses. Poppa*, I love you. We can't help each other unless you get me out. I got the FI-1. I just need help getting a Half-Way House. Please help. I need U.
1-17-013 Love you much, Roland J. White. T.W. :-)"
"Dear friend and brother,
I thought I had. Hello, how may I ask are you? Fine, I do hope and pray all is well with you. Well, as for myself, I'm doing better than some. Worse than others. As I can see, you have took me off The Felony Foundation mailing list. I can dig it. I'm back in prison. You're upset with me because I didn't keep it 100%... Well, let me let you in on a lil something; How can one keep it 100% with someone else when it's not 100% with himself? The day I got out of there, the Half-way House I went to wasn't no Halfway House. It was a Dope House. You fill in the blanks. I'm not as forthright as you, my brother. I only have a GED. Oh, I'm not making no excuse. I'm back for the choice I made. So, I'm "man"-ing up. This is my mistake. But, to lose friends because of my bad,...were they true friends? Because a friend , a true friend, is going to stick through thick and thin. I'm writing you to let you know it hurt me not to hear from you. I looked up to you as my brother-in-Christ. A true friend. I remember you needed a friend to lean on and a shoulder to cry on. I was there for you. Now, I'm in a jam and I can't get one letter from you or I can't get you to tell Lil Agg to write me through you.. When you needed help with Johnny, I was there. Oh well, I'm not like the rest. I forgive and forget. And continue to love. God bless you. Hope to hear from you soon. I miss you. I love you. Please love me back.
Love always, Mr. Roland J. White 8-27-16*
I'm looking at the wonderful Birthday Card you sent me with your picture in it. You look wonderful. God bless you. You said you getting married to Prince*. Is that John? I wish the best for you."
As you may well know, TFF has a Birthday Circle. Once a Partner, always a Partner. Every year that Poppa* is able to locate you, you will receive a Birthday Card from The Felony Foundation. Tight White's birthday is on February 27th. Since I did not have a good address for T.W., I looked him up in the system and saw that he was back in the system. So, I sent him a birthday card..........

"Dear Poppa*
Hello, How may I ask how are doing? Fine, I do hope and pray all is well with you. Well, as for myself, I'm doing OK. I got some bad news from parole. They gave me a four year set off. Yes, that hurt. I didn't even come back with a new case. Just a parole violation. Yea, I said the same thing. "OH', my God". What's going on, why? You know what they say...nature of crime, violation of parole and drugs. Which I don't do no drugs. Oh well, let me move on with my letter. I did 15 years. I can do four more. If you can keep me in your prayers. I need all I can get and some. Poppa*, I wrote you a month ago. Did you get my letter? How is the Foundation doing? I thought I would have a letter back by now. By the way, have you heard anything from Lil Agg? If so, tell him about my set off. Poppa*, I can't give up. All I can do is try to do better the next time they let me go. I truly need me somewhere else to parole to. I stay in harms way at that Half-Way House. Always in trouble. I just couldn't get my life started there. I feel so bad I didn't keep my word.....
....I also love you very much. Please, let me hear from you soon. Don't no one write me. I haven't had a letter but the one you sent me. Please write me, my brother. We have a covenant to love one another. Please love me. I need love so bad right now. Just to read those words will make my day.
Love T.W. 1-11-16
P.S. I look for a letter from you soon!"
Once Poppa* got back to Dallas*, he was living at the half-way house. Poppa* wrote to "Tight White" in hopes of continuing their friendship......
"Dearest to my Heart 3-6-013
Poppa*
Hello. How may I ask are you doing? Fine, I do hope and pray all is well with you, my love. Well, as for myself, I'm doing what I know to do; that is pray. I'm praying God bless me with a Half-Way House soon. I pray for you and my sister, Barbara, also. And I truly thank God in Jesus' Name for you all being a part of my life. I truly don't know what I would do without you all. God knows I'm grateful for you all loving me in this time of needed love. May God bless you in Jesus' Name for all that you do for me and for all the prayers you send up for me: I need them all. Well, I've been without work for almost a year. I was thinking I'll be home by now. That why I don't have no job. I'm getting kind of bored doing nothing. Too much time to think about going home. So, I'm going to put in for a job. I don't know. Maybe the kitchen as a cook. I love to do that, you know. I think I'm an "A-one" cook. Which is cool. My love, I just know I need to do something. My money is short. I'm sick of asking these people for a shot of coffee or a few chips. I'm a hustler. I like having my own. Poppa*, you asked me to send you some money slips. Well, I stumbled up on a few. I'm sending them to you. If God permit you to please send me a blessing. If you can't, I love you just the same because our relationship is not built on what you can do for me. It is built on love and if you don't know now; you know I love you, Poppa*, with all my heart. May God bless you til we meet face to face. You will always be in my heart of prayers and I won't ever forget you and your love you show so many people. Just a card at Birthday time or Christmas mean more than you will ever know. God bless you for you have made me glad in a sad situation. :-) Love you very much.
P.S.: Write back soon. Love, T.W."
ROLAND JEROME WHITE's HOMEPAGE
Well, Poppa* did not hear from Tight White for awhile. The next time that Poppa* was going to write Tight White, he was no longer in the system. I had the contact information for his sister. However, at that time, there was a lot going on. I slipped on the ice here in Dallas* on December 7, 2013 and broke the femur bone in my left leg. I was recovering from that episode........And The Felony Foundation was beginning to take off. Letters were beginning to pour in from around the World. Owell, it is what it is. God is GOOD!~~~
Poppa* met Roland in around 2008. They were both housed in "O" dorm in 5 Building at the Neal Unit in Amarillo, TX.
They became good friends and shared a lot in common. Roland was called "Tight White" by most of the other offenders in the dorm. He was very popular in the dorm. He liked to starch and press his whites every single day. "Whites" are the two pieces of white clothing that inmates are endured to wear every single day in TDCJ. They consist of white cotton pants and a white cotton shirt. They are very durable.
You may write Roland at:

Roland was born on February 27th. He is a Pisces. He is well known for his imagination, intuition and selflessness. He has an active mind, which he uses to meet all aspects of life with creativity.
"Dearest to my heart 'Poppa*' 3/4/17
Hello, how may I ask are you doing? Fine, I do hope and pray all is well with you. God bless you for you made my day. The only Happy Birthday I received was from you, my love. Thank you so, so much for loving me enough to not forget my B-day. In fact, this was the very first e-mail I ever received in my time serving. You may not come when I want, but you're always on time. :-) "My Poppa*" You will always be at the top of my list in my prayer life. I'm so happy for your Partner for Life. May God bless you all to be happy with each other forevermore. Oh, it brings tears to my eyes knowing I wanted the same thing for me and mine....
.... I'm sorry. I didn't mean for you to break any rules at TFF by asking you to keep me in touch with Lil Agg. Please don't think of me like I don't want to do right. That's not true. I messed up, yea, but it wasn't like I was on drugs or nothing like that. I was trying to survive. Forgive me for not calling you for help. In all reality, I was lost. Things had changed so much. Everywhere I went looking for a job, they wanted you to go online. That discouraged me. And I had no outside help. As I'm in need of help now. I would like to have me a radio. I don't have no money to buy one Poppa*. If your budget will allow you, will you please help me to get me one? They will give me an indigent fan, but ain't nothing like a radio. Well, I'm at this big unit, Ellis. It's fair. I'm new here. I don't know nobody. So, it's kind of rough not having your own. I'm strong. I'm praying. God bless you to be able to bless me. If not, I will always love you and keep you in my mind and heart of prayer. Please love, don't let it take you no six months to write me back. That's why I thought you took me off the TFF list. Poppa*, I love you and need you in my life. I'm like the prodigal son. Read the story and you will see me. Luke 15:11-31. As in vs 17, I've come to my senses. Please be as a poppa to me as you always have been. Talk to me. I'm in need of someone to talk to. Yes, I would love to be on the pen-pal list. I don't have no pictures of myself. But, you can get my picture off TDC.com It's a pretty good looking one.
This is my profile:............ ((( You can view his profile on the previous page)))
Well, Poppa*, this is from my heart. If I say anything else, I'll be lying. So, put it on just like this. Send me a copy if you can. Man, I love you with all my heart. I wish to find me someone as sensible as you.
Love always,
Roland J. White"
"Dearest To my Heart 'Bill'
Hello my beloved brother. May God keep his hand of protection on you and keep you blessed. I must say it's a blessing to receive a most wanted letter or should I say post card from you my brother. You have truly kept it real 100% . The only thing, it took you almost a month to write me back. Please, my love, put me in the place I deserve at the top of your list, just as I put you. Now, I received your letter post card on the 8th. I'm writing you back on the 8th. To give/show you love. God is so, so good. Two weeks ago, I received my answer from parole. An FI-1. Praise God. In Jesus' Name. I'm so happy. I don't have no stipulations with my other FI-18, I had 7 stipulations. And God is Good. As I see he have blessed you with a job. Thanks to Jesus. Billy, I love you and miss you. I will be getting out in about 3 more weeks. I can't wait to see you in the free World. I can see you still remember me with my Nike sign. Bro., it make me feel so good to even know I'm thought about. You make me want to cry tears of joy to know my love did not go in ain when I shared it with you. They just don't make people like me and you anymore. May God bless you for you have made me glad. Say, I want to ask you to send me some money, but I can't . But, I can ask you to send me some love. :-) Bill, I need you so badly to keep in contact with me. You give me hope! "just" for not; forgetting me. I have me a true friend. Poppa*. Please don't let it take you another day to write me. You put me at the top of your to do first. Now, I hold you to this in Prayer. I'll be out there with you soon! God bless you. God keep you. May the Lord make his face shine upon you. And be gracious to you. The Lord lift up his countenance upon you. And give you peace. Bill, write Lil Agg and tell him...P.S. I love you more with all my heart. I do love you, Poppa*. I send you a hug and a kiss. It's you I miss. Love you much.
Always T.W. 11-8-2012"
Shortly after Poppa* wrote, he received this letter from Tight White: "My I'm so Happy to hear from you
I could give you a big kiss :-)

God bless you my wonderful brother you have truly put a smile on my face. I looked at the name on the envelope. I said, "this can't be true he just got someone to write me for him." As I opened the letter to see you were out and that you loved me enough to write me, a tear came down my cheek. Bill, this letter came at such right time. I'm so down and out about my parole. I don't know what's going on with my parole. I've been out of the program since June 29. Now, why I ain't gone home I don't know. I would like to know why. Look, this is the deal. My original out date was 1-1-013 but when I got to the program they changed my program from a 18 month program to a 4 month program so I did a 4 month program and thought I was going to get out but they ship me to this unit so I asked the parole people here what was going on. They told me they don't know. So, I asked them do I still have my parole. They don't know. So, I'm like what's up? All I could do is pray and pray some more. Then you write me and you are out. Thank God for my friend. I know you will find out what's up on my Parole and when is my out date. Please, Bill, help me. I'm so afraid. I want to go home so, so bad. I pray they don't take my parole. They haven't sent me no kind of form saying they have took my parole. Please, get online, call the parole board in Austin and see what's going on with your baby brother. :-) I'm so, so proud of you. I can't wait to get out and take you out on the town. My, your letter truly blessed my spirit. I'm so happy to know someone love me and care for me? Do you need anything? - Yes, I need you to get my parole in check :-) Or you going back to Houston? - yes if you will come go with me. :-) What's the weather like? - Bill, it's about the same. I'm so very close to Dallas. Kairos here is pretty good. Well, my love, my pen is going out. Please write me back as soon as you can and tell me something about my parole. Oh yea, did you write Lil Agg? I miss him ...
Love You very much. God bless. TW Love always"

"Dearest; long lost brother, 9/26/13
"Poppa*"
Long time no hear from. I must say, it's more than a pleasure to receive a most wanted letter from you my love. I truly though you kick me to the curb; no letter for 5 months. That's some kind of love; but due to the fact that my love for you is unconditional, I forgive you. So, as I can see, TFF is up and running. God bless you for such a wonderful Christ-like thing you are doing. I don't have no tangible blessings I can send you to help progress TFF, but I have a blessed word from the Father in His Son, Jesus' Name. I'm sure you have read it, but I want you to feel it coming from your brother-in-Christ. It's Luke 6:38 - Give and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For, with the same measure that you use*, it will be measured back to you. Poppa*, let us look at; good measure - what it means in this passage. This illustration comes from the marketplace. Where grain was poured out, shaken down, and then filled to overflowing. So, the buyer received the full amount purchased. Such is the full measure that will be returned to one who has been generous. Poppa*, God sees your good works. You will be blessed back for all you do for us. Thank you very much for allowing me to be a Partner of TFF. I would like to support TFF when I get out. God bless you to keep on keeping on. In Jesus' Name. Now, back to your letter. Thank you for letting me know Lil Agg and Red went to Smith Unit. I'm happy you are keeping in touch with Lil Agg. Well, my love, I have to be getting closer to my bed coming open. Please pray for me and I'm not afraid to ask you to send me a lil blessing so I can buy me one of those Hershey bars you used to buy me. :-)
Love you much, Tight White
P.S. Please don't let it take 5 months for you to write back.
Give my best Hello's to Lil Agg and Red. Oh, yea, thank you for the wonderful pictures. I see you still have class. Nice, good looking food. I know it tastes just as good. Why didn't you take a shot of yourself? :-) God bless you my brother. In His precious Son, Jesus' Name..."
"Dearest To my Heart "Poppa*"
Hello my loving and caring brother; may God bless you for you have made me glad. Thank you for the love you show. It means so, so much to me "Love" This postcard is saying so much. If no one have told you lately, "I Love You." and miss you dearly. Just thinking of you that time trying to work out. At first you was so serious..........
............ By the way, have you did any kind of working out since you've been out? As you know it, we need to work out. We ain't getting no younger. May God bless us to see each other again. Well, as for me, I'm wanting to get out. Haven't no one wrote me back from all the Half-Way Houses I have wrote. By the way did you even call any of the Half-Way Houses I sent you? If so, what did they say? Poppa*, you know my birthday is on the 27th of this month. I wish I could be there with you to celebrate it with you. Anyway, I hope I get me a blessing on my books to make me a good spread. I would love to make me a pie and have a nacho spread. If you have any extra after you take care of your business, please send your boy a birthday spread. :-) If you can't, trust me, it won't take away one cubic of my love for you away. I love you in my heart with my heart through my heart.......
..........I want you to know if you need somebody, I'm here for you. P.S. Call the Half-Way Houses please. Thank You. Love you very much. Love Always, Roland J. White 2-7-13
Please, "Poppa*", will you call these Half-Way Houses and ask them do they have a place for me to Parole to? If so, would they please send me an acceptance letter? Now this one have sent me a postcard saying you are welcome to parole to Harmony House. To receive an official letter of approval mailed to you and your parole board, please callthem and ask what must we do to get me in Harmony House?

I give thanks to God whom I serve with a clear conscience. I thank him as I remember you always in my prayers. Night and Day. Bill, I remember your tears, and I want to see you very much so that I may be filled with joy to see my best friend; I must say, my letter touched bases with you. I'm so happy to know that you love and care about me enough to respond so rapidly!! I received your letter on Fri. 11-23-012. By the way, how was your Thanksgiving? Blessed, I would hope and pray. Well, as for mine, it was a blast. I ate pretty good here. They have a pork packing plant, so we had real ham; one of my favorite dishes on Thanksgiving. We prayed, but I truly didn't feel like I did at the Neal Unit with you. I don't know these people like I know you. My. Your letter had me under high concern with your health. It sounds like you had food poisin. But, I'm so thankful to God that he healed (My brother; Yes, I have lifted up every prayer request you asked me to pray for. "Glen" Most of all, I'm praying for you. I love you and miss you, Bill. I'm in need of some things on the Hygiene. I've been broke all this month. Send me a lil something if you can. If it won't put no strain on your budget. You know my sister. She be strained up some months and she can't send me nothing. So, just love me if you can. I love you any way. God bless you. I can't wait to see you. Remember, I put you first and foremost in my life. I would like to be that in your life. :-)
Oh, by the way, I was going to get out in 45 days, but I had to get another address. I couldn't parole to my sister's address. She stays too close to a school. So, I had to give another address. I gave them my cousin's address and I wrote her hoping she let me parole there. If not, I got to find me somewhere. A half-way house or something. I would love to be with you. If I had to go to a half-way house, we could have so much fun. I think it would be a blast. What you think? Could you put me on the list or what? Bill, don't go worrying. I didn't let this get me down. God didn't bring me this far to leave me so by Faith, I will get out and I will be taking you to a steak dinner. And who knows what else might jump off. :-).........................
..............I love you so much more than you know. Keep the Faith and let God be a part of everything you do and you won't go wrong. Scripture for my best friend: Proverbs 3:5. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, Never rely on what you think you know. Remember the Lord in everything you do and he will show you the right way.
Bill, I love you. I miss you. I put you first after Jesus because you have been a true, loving, caring friend. I'm so, so glad I planted in your garden for a friend because that's what's coming up. A friend indeed when a friend is in need. God blessed me with you. I will never forget how you would buy me them chocolate bars everytime you make store. That truly touched my heart of heart. When I get out, you will be blessed by me for that special love you showed me... P.S. please write me back right back like I'm doing you. I be needing to hear from you........
..........................................Love you much, T.W. Kiss - U"
"Dearest Friend I ever had. 12-8-012
Bill Garrett
Hello my loving and caring friend whom I love so dearly. May the God we serve, in His Son JESUS Name, bless you and keep you for you have truly made me glad and put a smile on my face. Your Christmas Card probably will be the only one I get. Thank you dearly for you always com through. A friend indeed when a friend is in need. Bill, I truly need you so bad right about now. I need me somebody's shoulder to cry on. It don't seem like I'm going to ever go home. If it ain't one thing, it's another. I can't parole to my sister's house. It doesn't seem like anyone else is going to let me go to their house. Bill, I never did any wrong to any of my kinfolk. Now that I need to use their address, don't no one want to help me get out this penitentiary. Bill, it's like they don't care. So, my brother, could you write or call some Halfway Houses for me, please. And give me some advice. I'm out of there. I can't even think straight. My brother, am I going to get out or what? I'm truly stressed out. I see people going home day after day, but not me. I'm like when is they going to call me on the change? My people, I can't write to tell them about their selves. They all say they love God, whom they can't see. How can they if they don't love me whom they see? God's Word say they tell a lie. Bill, read John 3:16-18 and 1 John 4:19-21. Thank you for loving me my brother. You sent me love at a desperate time. God bless you dearly. If I could, I would hug you and kiss you. :-) My brother, see what you can do for me a Halfway House.
P.S. Thank You for writing Lil Agg. Love you very much - TW Roland White 12/6
I will write more in my next letter. Write back soon.
"urgent"
P.S. Billy, would you please call my sister and let her know I need a address to parole to so I can get out of prison that after I get out I can get a address change to her place................I would like to go to Ben A. Reid Halfway House in Houston. Call and give them my information. I have a FI-1 and don't have no address to parole to. I'm a Christian. I love the Lord and give them my TDC # and whatever they need. But call my sister and let her know...........
Please call for me Urgent. Please, Poppa*, help get me out so I can help you. :-) I need help to get out. These people have gave me a FI-1 (one). So, I must do my part. Find me somewhere to go."
"Dearest; Poppa*, Mr. Bill 12-9-15
My my my. What a blessing it is to receive a wonderful letter from one of the most special persons in my life Poppa*. I've truly missed you dearly. May God bless us this time to keep in touch. I so happy to hear from you. I want to cry. But, I must stay strong. Poppa*, I'm going through this madness again. No, I did not pick up a new case. I'm back on a parole violation at the 1/2 Way House. They changed my P.O. and the one they gave me didn't like me off the top of our first meeting...........
.........Bill, well as for myself; I'm in good health. I'm keeping God at the head of my life. I Love you Bill - oops - Poppa*
Your letter came at the right time. I haven't heard a word from no one. I'm getting so old, I don't even remember my sister's address. Do you have it? She told me you wrote me there once. If not, you are my family. I know you love me. Me and you shared some special times together. I miss you so much. - Please, Poppa*, I need your help so bad. I can't get my life started or together. I was so lost when I got out. I wish we could have kept in touch. But, God knows what he's doing. You came in at the right time. Bill, yea, I need things here. I've been here almost 6 months and no one have raeched out to me to help me. Not one red cent, but God is good. I've never gave up on Him. So, if money is tight, I understand your letters to me is such a blessing. I see how the Lord blessed you. I could see you face to face when you said you was crying that day you and Henry was out to lunch. I saw you in the spirit. I wish you the best that the Lord have for you and TFF. Thank you so much for letting me know Lil Agg asked about me. Give him my love. Let him know there's not a day goes by that I don't think of him. I'm still fighting a good fight of faith. Keep me in prayer. I will come through in Jesus' Name. I can't give up when I get out. I'm going to try again.......
........Please, Poppa*, write back a.s.a.p. Can I get a personal letter from you? How is your love life? :-) Love, T.W.
Bill, you make me so happy to know you love me enough to look for me till you found me. That means so much to me. Bill, I need me somewhere to parole to. I'm already up for parole since Sept. 15, 2015. I'm just waiting on my answer. Look, Bill, in the Echo. They gave this number you can call to see what your answer is. Will you please call and find out what my answer is? You can call or go online http://www.tdcj.state.tx.us/
bpp/index.htm Phone number #844-512-0461 . Please, Bill, check on my parole for me. It's been 10 weeks and no answer yet. Man, I need you in my life. Please, help me, Bill. I need me somebody. It seems like I'm all alone. After reading your letters, I know you can relate. My, you was strong. Your letters gave me so much hope. If you can do it at your age :-), I can do it too. Thank you, my friend, I needed hear this. A friend indeed is a friend in need. You will always be at the top of my prayer list. With love from my heart. Have yourself a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years!
