I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt condolences to the Osborne family in this time in their lives. Rock was always one of my heroess as I grew up at Liberty Elementary. I particularly enjoyed watching him play football alongside my late brother Robert. I pray that God will keep this family in the palms of his hands and surround them with his love.
