A Bona Fide West Ender, an honest man, a fair man, a reasonable chauffeur whose good faith and many bonds with so very many people I was simply “All for One and One for All- That’s what engaging with Clinton has consistently been like for decades- the truth is the safaris was his style but the “Brother” is his legacy and the meat and potatoes of his unmatchable character!
Clinton presence will be missed immensely! Condolences to family and friends-
The Hub Of West End RIP - it’s your turn to be safaried - May the hands of God grasp yours and Lift you up; and because you lived your life with humility - my hope is others will join in and celebrate and honor you as I am intended here!
Condolences to family and friends!
Heartfelt condolences to the family.
And thanks to Bouncer for being such a solid inspiration.
