KHARE ( Kaa-Ray ) wrote a sympathy message

“Sending Luv and Strength to the family and friends ofJoshua Swain. This brother is certainly one of the coolest brothers I've ever met in life. We hung out and also had many great conversations full of wisdom. He and I would share our appreciation for blues music. He played me some of his favorites like Count Basie, James Brown and others. I admire him, his principals, his resilience, his humour and fortitude. He will be missed and I wish him a peaceful journey beside the Ancestors.”
