A Letter To My Brother

In a million years I never would have thought you’d be taken away from me on this earth so soon. I am who I am today because of your help. You looked up to me, you encouraged me, you’ve always had my back, and you kept me on my toes. I don’t know how to live without you but I do know that your spirit and legacy will live on forever. I know that you and dad have embraced in your new heavenly home and with this I have peace.

I am my brothers keeper now and forever. My head is held high brother for our work here is not yet finished.

You’ve always had a way of keeping me busy. Lol. Until we meet again brother, I love you now and forever.

“But the Lord reigns forever, executing judgment from his throne He will judge the world with justice and rule the nations with fairness.”

Psalms 9:7-8

A friendly smile, a casual touch, a kind expression...These are the things that mean so much. To know you are with us in our time of sorrow, sharing our prayers, today and tomorrow. God gives us the comfort in the form of family and good friends. May His peace be with you because His love never ends.

This came of no surprise to his sister Dominique because growing up she watched LeBarron and their father Will T Ballard develop and maintain computer programs. He also enjoyed doing challenging algebraic equations with his mother. LeBarron then dedicated his services to Parkland Health, where he developed and maintained computer software for hospital equipment, helping save the lives of many.

LeBarron did not have any children, but his nieces and nephew Amaya, Jayce, and Ariah came very close. He loved them more than anything.

herished Memories

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.”

Psalms 23
