This one is hard to believe. Had a lot of good times with this man and he always treated me with greatest respect. I know how much you two loved working together. He will be missed.

Kirby:
Words alone cannot describe how I feel about losing a close friend and brother. For more years than I can remember, Brother Fish was always there with us at the Skateland locations on Williamsburg Road, Hull Street, Ashland and Petersburg. I will always remember the big smile and his knowledge of music.

"O no.. I'm sorry to hear that Fish is gone. It's interesting Sonia (Bravador's wife) and I were talking about it the other night, about the memories of how the Z - Rock Crew used to promote Skateland every Sunday night with you and Dr. Fish...."

Thank you for taking the time to post these pictures and kind words from all the
people.
Fish was not only my cousin but my friend. He was a gentle man with a beautiful
spirit. Anyone that met him grew to love him. He was always willing to help out
even if you did not ask.
Wishing he was still here

I am deeply sadden by the loss of Fish. I had just spoke with him in Texas road house back in June. My thoughts and prayers go out to his immediate and extended family. 1986-2000 Sunday night session was some of my best memories of music. Thank you and Fish for those.
