Are you freaking kidding me? The man who lost his life in this accident I had as a guest in my home the night before. He was a stand up guy for the most part. First time I had met him he was a friend of a friend. That is super insensitive and unrelatable. I have my own reservations about Trump… To put it lightly… But find another story on this thread to troll……..

You’re forgiven, and you can thank the most accepting and compassionate man I’ve ever known.

I thought you were waiting down the road for him? If you were right behind him why was it 8 hours before he was discovered?

We all miss him terribly. He was the kindest man I have ever met. He would do anything for anyone. I don’t believe he even knew how to say no to anyone. He would give the shirt off of his back to someone if they asked. He was always happy and had a smile on his face no matter what was going on in his life. He is missed. Rest In Peace.
