She described him as someone who would give the shirt off his back for anyone in need.
The 41-year-old had two daughters, 14-year-old Isabella and 22-year-old Destiny, and three grandchildren.
His daughter’s grandmother says that Destiny is not in a good mindset right now and can hardly sleep. They cannot speak about it without crying, so this is a very difficult time for the family as they try to make sense of what happened.
Jamal Meyers, the suspected shooter, did not show up to his bond court Saturday morning. A CBS4 crew did stop by his home and knocked on the door a few times, but no one answered.
