GUESTBOOK
I won’t forget when I came out to visit when I was younger and Limewire / Napster was a thing on the computer for music. Tj had songs from Metallica in the library and I listened to them over and over when I was on the computer. That’s how I found my favorite band to this day. He also showed me the band Alice In Chains too. Every time I hear a song from one of those bands I’ll think about ya. Rest easy and Rock hard -Theo Julie & Paisley
So very for your loss. -Mike and Mimi De St. Jean
