I have lost my beloved brother, my council, my manager, and dear dear confidant. One of the greatest legal minds. An entrepreneur of amazing artistic imagination. A wickedly sharp sense of humor. A heart of unending love and charity. A disdain for all injustice.A Jeffersonian scholar. A brilliant and powerful figure. A husband who's love, loyalty and passion were boundless. His spirit will live on in Jett. His memory in all who knew him and his soul resides now with our Heavenly Father. I loved him dearly and I am a much, much better man for our time, a decade , together. To me, all too brief. So much more ahead. I thought we'd have more time.
