View all 148 ReflectionsYou were stolen from us my friend. I was proud to have worked with you and witness first hand the impact you had on our community and our state. You left a mark on this world. We talk you about daily in the office and we all miss you. We will hold your family close. Thanks for all the laughs, the education on baseball you insisted to share… lol, the Pepsi’s and snickers. I’ll always carry a Fifty Cent piece in your honor. Until we meet again my friend; watch over us.
