Rueben, it's difficult to fathom that it's been 20 years!!!!!! I have fond memories of our one on one time together @ Hialeah Race Track where you received your entry level motor training.

Always, always a cup half full kind of guy and never reluctant to remind others how blessed we were.

RIP Brother
