Hot Shot and I were classmates at Saint Paul's College. Over the years, we kept in contact, revisiting our days at Saint Paul's. I will miss our conversations and laughs. I am so glad that I talked with him a few weeks before he passed. 'Shot" was a friend to all and will be missed by many. He was a true SPC Tiger. I'll miss you, Shot. "Arnette" Linda McCullough
