Boyish, funny, not ticklish, loves to drink Miller Lite in the AM. Will smoke Pakalolo anytime of the day or night. I wonder if he still does. never goes ANYWHERE without his golf clubs, even if he is not going to use them! Has great manners when you are with him. Long distance break-ups HURT alot STILL. Beautiful face...extremely intelligent..loves to share new places and things. I MISS HIM SO.....Please call..my health is not good...remember I had a disability a while back...well now it is complicated into other physical problems that has escalated over the years. It sure would be nice to hear your voice again,that is all I ask.
