I only just heard today of Metro's passing. I was so very sorry to hear of it. I was absolutely blessed to have known Metro for a number of years. I can say without a doubt that the impact he made upon my life was unforgettable. Such a wonderful man, with such a great sense of humour. He was much loved by all that knew him, for sure. He was an outstanding person of great character and I missed him very much when I left that employment. I thought of him often and prayed for him. He will always have a place in my heart as one of the most memorable and wonderful people I have had the privilege to have met in my life time. Rest In Peace, dear Metro. Know that you were loved and cherished more than you could ever know or that could ever be spoken of. - Posted by: Linda (Professional) on: Mar 15, 2013
