Prayerfully Submitted,

i want to add my condolence to all of pearls family and friends..
I didn't know him when he played at Syracuse..
I met him at the Carmelo Anthony basketball center where I work a couple of years ago....
I am the custodian there and I want to say that he was the sweetest and kindest man I have ever met.
he always had a kind word or funny joke to pass on to me..
I hope memories of this great man help to ease your pain..may he soar with angels for ever..
