I'am in shock, just learned what happened. Seems like I just saw and talked to him about Real Estate at the H.E.B. gas pump. My dear friend and I went to Real Estate school together in Harlingen, he was such a inspiration to not give up.. I will all ways treasure his memory, R.I.P.. Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy.
