We offer our sincerest condolences to Bimbo’s entire family.
Bimbo, Gary and many other in our community played well together as kids. That followed us into adulthood, where we continued to play pool and have a “smile” (the anointed name my brother Donovan called a drink) at the Henry Street Pub.
He was a kind person with a big heart and always ready and willing to have a laugh, and dance if the ladies were so inclined.
So long ole friend until we meet again. Much love and respect. 💟🙏🫂
Deepest condolences to family and friends.
