Rest in peace brother. Thank You for being my friend&football teammate at Woodrow Wilson H.S. L.A. I remember seeing you in the elevator at L.A. County Medical Center on the way up to the 13 floor jail ward to book in suspects. You recognized me first pointed to your uniform and said "What do you think? Good look right? Lol! Thanks for the memories. R.I.P.
