Don B lit a candle

“I woke early this past Monday morning to prepare for a fishing trip with friends, when my phone buzzed with my lifetime good friend Michael's contact photo came on. I thought this might not be good news. Brother, we won't be able to call each other to talk able football, NBA or life any longer. Our memories of D. A. Smith, our Army times, or to say hey. I will carry your memories about happy times, crazy times or times that made us cry. I'll always REMEMBER THE TIME!”
