On this past Friday Oct. 6, 2023, I was in the neighborhood of where you once lived; my first thought was to drop by to visit my old friend, which I often did over the many, many years of our friendship, but then I remembered he doesn´t live there anymore. I realized at that moment how much I missed him, and realized that he has a new home in glory. Rest on JB you finished the race of life well here on earth, now enjoy your new home with your love one´s, specially with Jesus & Jean which is now so much better. I will forever missed and cherish all the times I stop by to visit with you and reminisce the good old days we spent on Vermont Ave.
Gone but not forgotten....
