This is insanity gone wild!  These low life, morally bankrupt, and inhumane hoodlums must stop the senseless killings! It was with a profound sense of loss and devastation that we learned the sad and shocking news of Lamar's tragic death. We extend to his wife, children, and family our deepest heartfelt sympathy. Lamar was a dear big brother that has shown our family much love and support. It was a privilege to have encountered this great soul. We'll always cherish his smile, warmth, and generosity of spirit. Love ya Big Bro.
