    I didn’t get to know him I only met him once or twice but he made me smile and called me sis . I’m so sorry for your loss . I really wish there was something more I could say to comfort all of you . May you all find comfort and strength in each other and the love your family has. He may be gone but never forgotten

    Man I don’t know what happened and I don’t need to. All I know is you will be missed. This man was always there for anyone that needed him. Some of that help came without being asked. He was a real friend to almost everyone. You will. E missed doughboy.
