Thoughts and prayers goes out to Canaria's family.! I had the pleasure of working with him at his bbq place just before I relocated to Kansas City. He was such a good man. He trusted me and didn't even know me. He Would come prepare the food and leave. He would leave me at the restaurant and I would run it sometimes all day. We had a lot of fun days working together. After realizing we were associates of a lot of the same people he knew he had someone he could trust. He was a Godly man and he often spoke about the Bible. You will be missed.! Rest on my brother.
