A special birthday shoutout to our former beloved staff member. Although you are no longer around us physical, spiritually you are with us always. I still remember the day you and Liam helped me create the Jocwc Laney page. You weren't just a staff member, you were a family member. To me, I looked up to you as a brother and a role model. I still remember when I told you and Imani that I wanted to give up my dreams on becoming a nurse because I thought I wasn't good enough, both Imani Fleming and you said you would "beat my butt" if I gave up. Thank you for that day, thank you for all the laughs and the smiles you brought to our faces and thank you for always having your febreze bottle in times of need. You will always have a special place in the JOCWC and in our hearts. We love you and miss you Chris.
Love the Sahiba and the JOCWC staff
