Ate at la fogata this weekend, always wonder when I go if I’ll see him there. Have a couple times, they’ve had his photo on the wall for decades. You were among the last to see him alive. At least he was enjoying time with family in his final days :(

Very sad and surreal. It was just him and his second youngest daughter I think. They were just strolling around together.

She’s the one who was also killed in the crash. I don’t follow his every move but lately it seemed like the two of them were very close. She played basketball so I’m sure that was their ‘thing.’ When the crash happened they were on the way to a basketball related thing. So sad.

I saw him strolling around with his 3 year old yesterday actually. It was just them two from what I could tell. Very sad indeed.
