I just found out that my cousin Gary has passed on. I'm deeply saddened but so grateful to have had him in my life. I remember our city and high school being pretty rough on young black males but Gary demanded respect. With the resolve of a person that refused to allow fear to cripple his progress he was one to look up to, and I did. We lost touch after high school but I never forgot him. My brother and I frequently talked about our cousin Gary with the hands. I love and will forever miss you kuzzo! These tears may go away one day but your memory never will. Rest in peace king!

First I wanna say may God comfort your family and give y'all strength during this time of grief.  They used to call me "boonga" back in the day, that's what you'll all probably know me by lol. I haven't connected with Gary since I was probably still in grade school tryna run around with the older kids in the neighborhood. But my memory of Gary was just that he was always happy and smiling and it always felt really good to be around him. He was always doing something or going somewhere so I never got to hangout with him and would usually end up hanging out with his younger brother "poo butt" lol.  Gary had a smile you'll never forget. He was always nice to me and made me feel welcomed even though I was just a little guy tryna be around the big kids and that made me feel accepted. I'm certain he will truly be missed. God bless you all and stay strong
