We recently saw each other for the 1st time in few years...and it was like I had seen him yesterday...Tiko always was as genuine, as anyone, that I have ever met. A 100% stand up guy ! He carried a great heart and a smile that made you smile, regardless of how your day was going! He always bragged on his family and was so proud of his children! You could feel the love for his family in the way he spoke of them. Just know he will be smiling down and looking over every last one of you forever, just as he did everyday. God bless, and my prayers are for his entire family. He will be dearly missed and forever appreciated!!!
