You came to me in a dream and I looked for your page to find out you are gone. It's been about 20 years since I've seen you in person in CA. Talented, funny with big heart. May your spirit continue to rest. Sending prayers of continued healing for the family.

I met Jenero in the 8th grade at Westlake Jr High. He had the biggest smile and a Southern accent that I just absolutely loved. He was always full of life and making everyone around him laugh. I miss you friend, until we meet again.
