Mauri was one the finest gentlemen I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I met Mauri 21 years ago when I joined the Knights of Columbus. Mauri always had a smile and a joke. I became his apprentice grits maker. No one made them like he did. If there were more people in this world like Mauri, the world would be a better place. Thank you for your service Brother. Rest easy. Job well done Sir. You will be missed. May God bless you and welcome you into His kingdom.
