Small in stature, But enormous in your will to live. May The God of your understanding let you rest now. The pain, The suffering and the fight is over. Time to soar with the Eagles and fly with the Angels. Although you never knew it. You were a huge inspiration to me and my personal health issues such as dialysis. Every time I would see you & talk to you, I would be reinvigorated with the strength to keep going. I have a pretty good feeling, I was not the only one. Joining the giant "Hoolie" in the sky. One day we shall join you again. I loved the fact that you always called people "Brother". Because that is what we all are in the Lords eye's. Brother's & Sister's. R.I.P. Brother!
