Dear Jill, and family, No words can express my sorrow for your loss, what a beautiful son you have! My brother Kenny said he saw you in our old hood yesterday and that you looked beautiful, I asked if he knew where you were but he didn't ask, so I googled to get in touch and came across this tragic news...I am so sorry! I think of you often, our walks down Hunting Lane, soap operas at your house after school w your Mom, Sandy, Erin, and Michelle and of course the "principal" RIP. Please get in touch when you can, all my love,
