I am deeply saddened by the loss of the "OG" He was genuine to who is was, never pretended or made excuses no matter what the situation was or who was around.
That truly made him special, I will miss him constantly busting my chops with a grin on his face. To the family; you have only physically lost him and I'm sure he will remain in yours and your childrens hearts forever. The memories can never be erased.
