elevated KkAm9 FAMOUS QUOTES:

elevated KkAm9 “Money talks, bullshit walks.” If you knew our dad, you knew he should have had this tattooed across his chest.  I swear he said this in his sleep once.

elevated KkAm9 The sad reality of this saying is “only money will do, the rest of it is bullshit.” Papa Joe worked endlessly day in, day out. Why? Theres too many reasons why. The top reasons being his golden heart, and empathetic soul.

elevated KkAm9 Now is his time to rest in peace. We will miss you, dad, every hour of everyday.
