One of the brightest lights in my life when I was little and in my cherished adult memories. I aspired to be like him! A Man on a Holy Mission... And loved by so many. One could only hope to be 1/100th of the person he was...
To one of the greatest men I ever knew, I say goodbye; you're in God's hands now and will be greatly missed by ALL...
