Errol and I met while serving in the Marines in mNorfolk, Va. in 1966. We had many good times before I got out in early 1968. Fast forward to 1984 we ran into each other at a restaurant in Campbell, Ca. For the next 30 years we had lots of good times together. Lost tract of him in 2014 when he moved with his wife Mary to Florida.
RIP dear friend.
