In 1996, I became a member of First Baptist Church in Fort Lauderdale, where I served in the Christmas pageant for two years. Later on, I volunteered in their security team and eventually became the lead security agent for the pastor and his family. Additionally, I have been a volunteer at the MAKE-A-WISH foundation since around 2004 and continue to serve there. I have also been volunteering at the Broward County Humane Society for the past five years, where I started a security group that has grown to a five-man unit. During this time, I have taken it upon myself to guide court-ordered volunteers towards a brighter future through open conversations about their experiences and goals. I have been a member of The Hundred Club since 2017, an organization that supports the families of fallen firefighters and law enforcement officers. Currently, I am a weekly attendee at Calvary Chapel church, where I serve as a greeter at the door entrance. Before my injuries, I used to be a good neighbor by helping with tasks such as cutting lawns and cleaning pools for my neighbors. One of my proudest accomplishments is my son Jeffrey, who I raised to be polite, respectful, and always a gentleman. He received scholarships for college, got married, and now serves as a pastor, with three wonderful children of his own. The most fulfilling part of my life has been my journey towards serving our creator, GOD. This path has brought me joy, comfort, and inner peace like no other.
