My deepest condolences to the entire Griffin Dawson family at this difficult time.LP was a dear friend of mine.We constantly talked to each other on the phone.We started head the same year and remained the best of friends throughout the years.A few days before LP passed he told me not to cry or worry about him and I said silly boy be quiet.We both laughed.I tried calling LP a day before he left us.I said to myself this ain't like LP, won't return my call because we talked all the time, anytime.We was childhood friends and both families knew that.Anyway I said well he must still be in the hospital and I hope nothing bad.Least I knew my buddy had slipped away to be with the Lord.I will forever cherish our funny, silly,lovely friendship.Sleep on BIG DOG! That's was your other nick name the classmates called you.R.I P.We all love you.Gone but never forgotten in all our hearts 💕.
