This news broke my heart, not only because he gave me the honor of getting to know him since I was 14 years of age, and always treated me like part of the family. But mainly because of the pain my best friend Wilma has to endure parting with her #1 man also her Mom and sisters and brothers. They were a tight knit family, they love each other immensely and whole heartedly, he was that Rock, that real man who ‘s main priority was his family first and foremost, I always admired that. He will be missed terribly but always remembered. Rest easy Pa, by the side of our lord and savior. My heart is with you all and I’m here for all of you always.
