He and his wife raised a number of beautiful children and have a large number of grandchildren (although only one being his children's kids) see he and his wife Laurel were foster parents for infants born to drug moms, or abandoned babies or babies being given up for adoption etc. They were the first parents these babies ever knew...and then helped to see them go to permanent parents to pick up where they left off.

I pray for his family that they find strength and peace in this horrific time of loss, and I pray that the person who killed him is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. This is a senseless crime/loss that should have never happened. I am just devastated by the news... kamala
