Redman thank you for being my friend we had a lot of fun from softball and pirate games to the after parties. I will NEVER forget you, number 11 in your scorecard and number 1 in your heart. Never met a challenge you didn't accept and never left home without your glove. The late nights at redwood diner for french fries with gravy and the ride home from various places not to mention. You are the best and God is surely smiling on you today. God Bless and hope to see again someday.
