    This is truly a sad day, haven't talked to him since high school but not one time did I ever have anything bad to say about the guy. He always a stand up guy, all the way through school, working at Mitchell Shell Gas Station, he was just a good guy point blank. My deepest condolences, his entire family are in my thoughts and prayers at this time πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™
