In all my years on this earth, I have learned that when we are called to go home, we will go.

We have one life to live.

The material things we invest in are left behind…

Memories therefore, are important to me.

So, I'm going to start a "reunion of friends".

The idea is to see who reads a post without a picture.
If no one reads my post, this will be a very short experiment.
But if you are reading this message, make a comment using a single word about how we met.

After that COPY this message on your wall and I will also leave you a word.

Please, don't leave a word and then not bother doing the second thing.
Let’s go!!!!

My friends are important to me, especially right now!
Now it is your turn.

When you have a near death experience, you learn to appreciate all the little things in life even more…

Three months ago, (when this picture was taken) my life change forever!

Through all of the mental anguish, physical pain, sleepless nights, post concussion symptoms, anxiety, not being able to enjoy any of my favourite food and so much more. I can’t help, but wonder if my life will ever be the same.
I keep trying to be normal and if I’m not please for give me. I try my best to reply to all messages and return phone calls but it’s overwhelming sometimes.
Just remember I’m always grateful 🙏🏻

The only thing that gets me through each day is the amazing family, friends, and people that have been here to help me through all of this with their love, support, and kind words.

I will never stop saying THANK YOU 🙏🏻 and thank God I’m alive!

Major TBT back to the days when I had a audio / video / electronics store.
It was on Dundas St in Mississauga.

I did have a couple of partners so I focused on what I did all through high school…
My car audio installation business.
We sold alot of home and car audio at that store including a bunch of Technics 1200MK2 turntables 😊

10/05/2023

TBT

Just found this…

I just me and my Iroc 😂

10/03/2023

When you are involved in a bad accident sometimes you end up forgetting a lot of things…

It took me a while to recollect some events of the night I got hit. Everything is still fuzzy.

I heard the story from many people including Rizwan and Aviva M of what happened to me the night I got hit.

There were countless people that came to help me, all of whom I will forever be grateful to.

However, there is one man that was actually my hero that night…

Rick K somehow made it to me, held me up, keep me conscious even when I was told that I was going into shock, he kept slapping me…
He even secured my Dj bag ❤️

Ricky you told everyone you were my brother that night and you never left my side.
YOU actually kept me alive like a brother would do for his own family 🙏🏻

I have never given anyone their flowers on social media but today I’m honoured to THANK YOU and give you yours bro 💐 God Bless you!

Pic #1 and 2 is Ricky holding me up after I got hit.

09/01/2023

To my amazing family and friends,
THANK YOU for your kind words of support and the outpouring of love and positive energy.

I have tried to reply to everyone but it’s very difficult for me right now.

The last couple of weeks have been like a nightmare for me.

A car hit me in a parking lot after a boat cruise. It pinned me against a fence.

I suffered numerous, significant injuries, some of which required emergency surgery.

I am still in the hospital.

It is going to be a long road to recovery.

At this point in time, I will not be accepting any event bookings until further notice.

Thank you for your understanding!

Special thank you to everyone that was at the scene of the incident and helped me through the ordeal. I will be forever grateful to you all.

😮 I NEED one of these right now!!! 😋 @chefdevan

The video says it all…

I don’t want people I know and care about fall for the propaganda of the North American media… In addition, let’s just look at the facts. Israel has openly admitted to blocking food, water, and cutting electricity to Palestine. They are bombing civilian homes, hospitals, and buildings. The WORLD is watching and letting this happen... These are War Crimes and it’s not fair nor humane!!! @justinpjtrudeau PS, I’m not going crazy! I just can’t watch the lies I see on TV and the genocide taking place in the year 2023
