What defines "family"? For me, family has mostly been people with whom I had no blood ties at all. My son just lost his "Uncle" last Saturday & I lost a "Brother". Not only that, we lost a "protector". Gerald "Largo" Coleman was more than just a best friend to my son's Dad. Long after my son's father and I parted, Largo ALWAYS looked out for my son and for me. No matter the situation or the "side of town", I knew if something went down and he had to come to help, the problem was going to be dealt with.
I respected and loved him even more when my son's father "went away". He took on the responsibility of making sure that my son and I could still know that we were safe and that no one was going to fuck with us! That meant EVERYTHING to me, given the life I had and the things I faced raising my son alone.
Many of my memories of Largo are fun and happy memories; but, he could get very serious and very dangerous if you messed with anyone he loved. I was blessed to be one of those people. So, for you to leave us now, Largo, at the age of 41 is a heavy blow to my heart.
You will be missed, your memory cherished, and FOREVER LOVED.
"C's" up! Love you, bruh. Rest in Heaven!
