Dear Family of Ikey,
Thank you for posting the beautiful video of Ikey’s life. He was a big part of my teen years, and although I moved away after high school, I have never forgotten how fun he was or how kind he was to my family, especially when my dad was oversees. (Ikey had a talk with one of my brothers, and my mom never had to mow our lawn again while my dad was away.)

It was wonderful seeing pictures of the grown-up Ikey with his beautiful family. Even though I never have had the pleasure of meeting you all, I know you all carry on his loving ways.

Best care,
Susan

You were an inspiration and motivator to many, especially myself. With style and passion for business as well as a devoted family man.
I looked up to you as a true leader in the Fayetteville community.
Samantha and Joyce were my Fayetteville family and I know how much they love and will miss you.
In my prayers always.
I love you all, God will see over you through this and give Ikey a comfy space to watch over Joyce, Tommy, Samantha, Tres and sweet Lacy.
RIP to a good man❤️
Love to all❤️

Ikey was a fun loving man. You could tell he loved life. We use to see him every week at 316 Oyster Bar and has such great conversations with him. May he rest in peace and no longer suffer.
