Andre Irell Hamilton

The softened rush of Angel wings when the heavens all rejoice, when one finds God’s redemption. The Angels lift their voice. They sing, so full of glory, A Child Has Come Home. No more to wander aimlessly so lost and all alone. Andre “Irell, Bald Head” Hamilton was born on November 11, 1968, to Jessie M. Hamilton and the late James C. Jones in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
