"Love and miss him so much. Especially his happy smile and his goofy off. loved to make people laugh. He was so good and getting his life together. Now 2 more random people shot in Shreveport it is just unreal not even safe to drive anymore with the fear you will get shot. Really sad what the world is coming too. God be with the other 2 family going thru the same thing we are. God help us through this difficult time."
