Arthur & I shared some classes back in the day at Righetti. Not a day passed where he didn´t greet everyone with a shining smile, his clear beautiful eyes shining. There was a time where Arthur stood up for me at his own peril in a violent situation, without hesitation, and de-escalated the conflict with smiles and handshakes. I´m sorry to his family for this loss, take some small comfort in knowing that he is loved and respected by all who´ve known him.
