Found memories of him back in fifth grade. He taught me a lot about life, being a man and God. He was a good man with excellent values. I wrote about him in college and was able to give him a copy of what I wrote a year or two ago. I wanted to see him once more but God wanted him first. Suppose I can wait to talk with him there. My love goes out to his family during this time for their loss and sorrow. My prayers are with you.
