  1. Yeah, I think one of the unspoken points of the obituary is Redemption.

    Do the relatively peaceful last six months of his life make up for, how should we say, ‘less peaceful’ previous years?

  2. “Why Lie…Need Beer Money”- RIP Mad Dog….Oregon Hill will miss your drunken, sometimes racist, but always inappropriate antics

  3. I would like to remember Mad Dog the last time I saw him. He was on Albemarle Street on his hands and knees sifting out rocks from the dirt for a new vegetable garden plot. He had a huge pile of rocks that he had sifted out. He told me that he couldn’t many things but that he was glad that he could do this for the neighborhood.
