Describing what Junior meant to everyone that had the opportunity to meet him, in a few words, will not do justice to what this man meant to many of us. He was an amazing, son, brother, father uncle and friend. He always knew how to put others needs before his own. He had such a big heart that he saw the best in people. He would go above and beyond to help others even if it meant he would have less to offer. Something special about him is that he was Sensei(Grand Master of Karate) a Martial Art.  I cannot count how many lives he has made an impact on, and the many students and lives he has touched.  His students, students parents, and many professionals respected him and appreciated his feedback.

Growing up with a man like him in our lives was special. He wasn’t your typical Uncle, brother, or Father. Junior was loud but funny, big like a teddy bear, strong like the hulk but caring, looked out for others even if they weren’t his blood. Watching him raise his Beautiful daughter is by far the most special because you saw the unconditional thoughtful & caring love he had for her. It won’t be the same for her but she will forever have us to remind her what a great man he was. Junior was pure Joy to be around. We were all left heart broken but we know he is at peace and no longer in pain which brings happiness to us. Junior fought hard for the last three weeks.

Many have been asking how they can help, so we have created this account to help pay for funeral costs.
