“Asa,
Today shattered me… in the most beautiful way.
Seeing you stand beside Leona, with peace in your eyes and love in your heart — I couldn’t hold it in. Not just because of the man you’ve become, but because of how you became him. Nothing was handed to us. We built this through fire, faith, and a bond that never broke.
We didn’t chase the spotlight. We stayed rooted, loyal to our story and our people. We didn’t sell out—we carried the culture, even when it felt heavy. That’s why the blessings never left—because we never left ourselves behind
You’ve been more than my manager. You’ve been my shield. My sanity. My brother in every battle. When the lights were off and it got dark, you stayed. And even now, with the world at our feet, you’re still that same solid soul I started with.
But Asa… since Leona came into your life, you’ve changed. You softened. You smiled more. You became a man at peace. And watching her see the real you, not the workhorse, not the machine, but you, that healed something deep in me, too.
Leona… thank you. For loving him the way we all hoped someone would. You didn’t just join the journey — you became its purpose. You brought him home to himself. I promise, as long as I breathe, I’ll protect what you two have built.
This wedding is not just love. It’s legacy. It’s proof that we can rise without losing our souls, that brotherhood can survive success, and that culture can be kept, not just worn.
We didn’t just make it, Asa. We made it our way. And standing next to you today, I feel something no award can give me.
I feel home.
Forever beside you,
David”.
