He was the one with the smile! He was the handsome, smart, reliable, determined, and strong. He loved to workout at the gym or ride his bike or run for miles. He loved to eat well and a lot. He was also an animal lover and everyone’s best friend. He always liked to smell and look nice. He loved nothing more than to put on a suit and tie.

Our hearts were torn apart on January 26, 2021 when he left this world. We never seen it coming. We know he struggled with sleep and night terrors from his returned from deployments.

Please call 988 the suicide and crisis lifeline if you are experiencing mental health or distress. Remember that friend that always has that smile on his face might need you more than you think.
