      Hi Eddie, I would just like for you to know that your appreciation and gratitude to Kirby has been the best thing I’ve seen in a long time. Also, the way you explained on how your father was an inspiration to how you wore particular clothing was the most touching aspect. It brought me to tears almost because of the respect and love you have for your father. Have a good one bro. See you soon god willing 🤝🏻
