RIP my friend, we had some good times together, from the lake to the beach and back. You will be missed!

Poogie was a great man with a heart of gold. Many great memories fishing, sky diving and hanging out on the front porch at the beach. I am sad to hear of his passing but am thankful for the time we spent together as he was a blessing to everyone who was lucky enough to know him.

Cheers to one of my most unique friends. Heaven has another kind soul looking down on us with a smile and a never ending cold glass of Captain Morgan and Canada Dry. I miss ya but know you’re feelin Mo Betta! Ya!

I used to visit Poogie's store when I lived at Oxford Orphanage, as did many children who lived there. I mentioned Poogie and his store in my book, The Homeless Man's Journal. That's how much deference me and other children showed him. Even though he wasn’t a teacher or a counselor or a coach, he played a big part in a lot of our childhoods.

Trips to Poogie’s were more than just a run for candy or a soda—they were a ritual, a moment of freedom, a taste of normal. Every orphan...

You were one of my brothers( Jimmy) best buddy. Thank you.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.
