Just learned about the lost of a very gifted man. I too am shocked and saddened. I looked you up online just to see what you were doing. Rest well Imo. God needs the talent and gifts he blessed you with. Thank you for your guidance and intellect during our time in school. I will always remember.

Dr. just learned about this shocking news. How shocking, how devastating, it is scary but I remember you always would end a conversation with 'we thank God'. Its emotional but it's been a year and I wouldn't want to bring sadness back. Be blessed as you rest in peace.
