We celebrate the life of a man who lived with speed, passion and a heart as big as the engines he loved. Known for his stunning cars and undeniable charisma, some of my earliest and most cherished memories are of sitting shotgun while we went street racing. To me, he wasn't just my brother, he was my best friend. That sentiment was shared by everyone, even back in my elementary school days, I'd beg him to take me to school because his car was so cool and all my friends thought it was too. He was the person I looked up to and admire. He had a way of making everyone feel like part of his inner circle. He is survived by a family that will forever miss the sound of his engine and the warmth of his smile. Though he has crossed his final finish line, his legacy remains in the fast lane of our hearts.
