I've known Nerve for over 50 yrs, he and my younger brother were friends. He first came by the house asking, was Michael home with hands in his pocket smiling. He was about 9yrs old. As years went by whenever I saw we would talk about Leon, Willie Jackson, Timothy Manning, and my brother. They are having their own reunion now. God bless and keep his family in peace. Prayers of encouragement and strength.
