“My wife has just been a complimentary blessing. People know me. I am too carefree but I have a companion that is strong. Like they say that couples complement each other, that is one thing I cherish, all and my life.”
“Sometimes, you meet people along the way and they become energy for you. They give you the right aura, and mine has not been different. I thank God. That is what has made me who I am.”
