Tiny was a good friend to me when I was living in my Mother-in-Laws home. He helped me a great deal as I was getting the house in living order.

May God keep your hearts and mind during your time of grief.

Rest in peace my friend and class mate

I was working the med cart one day not to long ago Tiny rolled up to me and said I'm hungry. I asked him if he wanted some pudding he said yeah, I gave him a cup and he began to eat it he followed right along with me through my med pass and 4 more cups of pudding. He stayed close to me that entire shift when it got time for me to go home Tiny said " I'm going with you" I said you can't go with me he smiled and said I'm going with you I told him I had 10 kids 3 dogs and a husband he laughed and said I don't care. It was a pleasure to take care of Tiny he will be missed by many. Praying for you all. Angie West
