June 7, 1986 – January 31, 2024
at the age of 38 years:
He was a son, brother, father and friend to many. The guy that would lend a hand, ear and hug to anyone in need.
Unfortunately, it was time to leave us.
He is now with his mother, Shelley, may she take him under her wing and guide him to peace.
The flood of sadness from all that have been able to know him as his true self, will be left without a piece of heart….for he was loved.
