Comment:	Thank you all for the kind words about my father. It is an honor to hear what an impact he had on many peoples lives! It was haunting reading some of his testimony in this article, as I myself ended up on the cold streets strung out on drugs. All my life, Ive been told, "you look like your dad; you sound like your dad; you are your dad." I was so young when he passed he had become like this mythological creature to me. Looking back I was mad at God for taking him, and this "rebellious streak" eventually became a path of destruction. I spent a long time in a dark season trying to find who I was through women, drugs, music, money & crime. But you see, as much as Satan had a hold on me, Jesus never let go of me. And man was that the worst part. Yes the drugs and the life messed me up physically, mentally and spiritually; but what really messed me up the most, is that I had tasted of Gods genuine goodness in my life. It was utter torture! Because I knew better. I knew I was called to a higher life than the high life. So began the search for that calling. It has taken awhile with lots of tears & prayers that have not gone in vein. I am now attending Christ for the Nations and am finding my new identity in Christ, for nothing else matters. I would love to be in contact with any friends of my dads, so I can get to know him through the people he loved so dearly. Yours in the Journey-
