A very good friend, you gave me good pointers on helping to improve my Community Watch program, I apologize but no one told me about your passing for that I am deeply saddened, you will be missed. I am going to miss the nights patrolling with you keep our communities safe, yet there is no word on how you saved communities from drugs, gangs & crime. I won't let you be forgotten here. From one Community leader to another rest well you have earned it.
