One of the best person I’ve ever known. The only thing bigger than his contagious character was his beautiful heart. I’m blessed to have my memories with him and I wouldn’t change that for nothing! Fly high knowing you left your mark and were truly loved by so many!
PawPaw, where can we all start with you? I just know that you were one of the most beautiful people I knew. You are st peace now and in no more pain. We love and already miss you. RIP PawPaw.
