Although I did not have the pleasure of a personal relationship, I was a consistent patron of his esteemed products. We extend our heartfelt condolences and wish him eternal peace. This unfortunate event underscores the rising criminal activity within our nation, which has traditionally been known for its safety and security. My most recent purchase was on August 8, 2025. It is our hope that his business and legacy will continue to thrive.”
