April 11, 2024 at 9:11 amI will miss Gator so much. We worked together and he always made me smile. Just Friday he was joking and laughing with me. I will always think of him when I eat shrimp & grits and remember how he spent weeks leading up to our work party telling me not to miss the shrimp and grits cause they were so good. I will miss hearing him yell my name across the lobby on Friday’s. My world will be a little dimmer without him. I am praying for his family.
