growing up with my brother, naturally we had our moments good & bad as sibling rivalry is expected. One incident I recall where we were at the age where testosterones were at its high, Jay was chasing me through our parents house with a giant potted plant that our parents had. After 5 minutes of this I had enough & not realizing that the storm door was closed , I jumped through the pane glass window causing a massive slice to my right arm ending up in the hospital having 15 to 20 stiches sown into my arm. Luckily, that's all it was. I was released that same day with a big bandage that covered my entire forearm. our mom & dad threw the plant out after that. We did become much closer after that

Donald was a great influence on me pertaining to many aspects of music. Something I still enjoy today. I truly enjoyed spending time with him while visiting his brother David many afternoons and weekends during our school days. Rest well Donald and thank you for the musical seed you planted and helped grow within me.

As a musician , growing up with my brother he was a major influence on his many genres of music & an album collection that was like walking into a record store. When he would leave the house, I would borrow some of his albums to practice with, had to do it on the sly, he was very finicky about his albums, to be handled with the up most importantince & returned in alphabetical order. While he was listening & enjoying his music, I was learning how to play to it. Jay was also a fashionable dresser back in the day , I would also sometimes borrow certain accessories that he could afford to buy . Being that we were only 4 years apart we had a lot of common interests
