Brenda, Mica & Tabi, My heart truly aches for you right now. He was such a wonderful man and I truly believe that they broke the mold after him. He was selfless, silly and so full of love for his family, and even his "family" like Melissa & I. I am giving you time and space for now, but I am here when you are ready for company, an ear or a shoulder. Aaliyah sends her love to each of you as well. She is so sad. We love you so very much and we will miss seeing his smiling face. Praying for you for peace, understanding and healing.
