Kay, sorry for the loss of Reid. We were childhood friends in Washington Heights a long time ago. Back at Christmas of 2018 I sent Reid and Don Anderson a video I had made about our friendship, I heard from Don, who has now passed, but never Reid, Tried to find him but no luck. I knew he had moved, but could never find out where and the reason.
In case you never saw the video, here is a copy of the video of our life back then.

I will never forget Reid. He was a longtime friend of my dad, Ron Coleman. I spent much time with him as I was growing up. He taught me to drive, and on a stick shift of his old Volkswagen Beetle! He was a kind sole.
