    He was such a kind and gentle soul.  He was my buddy and a perfect gentleman.  Although it’s been a handful of years since we sat down and chatted, I always looked forward to seeing his smiling face and reminiscing together.  He definitely left behind a lasting impression on so many.  Rest in paradise sweet friend.
