We just talked, not even two weeks ago, at that same gas station.
It's a shame.  I am truly hurt.
My oldest son knew him before I knew him.
I talked to him at the Quick trip, all the time, across the street from where he worked, but, I never knew his name until one day, we were at the Quick trip and my son was with me, and he was there.  OMG!  We have been sharing winning lottery numbers for years, and I never knew his name until the day my son was with  me, and they knew each other.  Rest in Heaven.

I am devastated!

I'll say a prayer for him.

I'm so sorry to hear this. That is so shocking and terrible. Rest in peace 🙏

Thanks everyone.    It made the local news today, I think I am still in shock, because, the last time I seen him, I gave him a few dollars to play some numbers, that's what we did.  That's how I knew him, we both trying to make $50.00 off a 50 cent play, lol.
Prior to him passing, he had told me about his grand daughter, she was murdered by her boyfriend, a few months ago, she was leaving him and she got into a ride share, and he rode up on a bike and shot her.  It's on that news link I posted.  Prayers to his family and friends.

The shooter has been found and arrested, charged with 1st degree murder, armed criminal action, robbery.
