We’ve made lots of memories over the years together but the ones that stand out most to me was after I got out of the hospital & returned home. You would stop by to visit & hangout even though you were juggling a job & going to school. And after I moved you came to Houston to see me when I had my doctors appointments. You’ll always be in my heart. I love you buddy. Rest In Peace
