Some photos become priceless with time.
This one takes me all the way back to 2003. It's me, Marcus, Omar, and Isaac. Isaac is the one wearing sunglasses... at night. That was him. 😎
Today my heart is heavy after learning from Marcus that Isaac has passed away.
When I moved to Charlotte in 2001 after my divorce, I didn't know many people. Isaac was one of the first friends I made, and he helped make a new city feel like home. We spent countless nights in the clubs, laughing, hanging out, and having dance battles. I'll always joke that he let me win... because the truth is, that man could dance better than just about anyone. He would've given the dancers on So You Think You Can Dance a serious run for their money.
Even after I stepped away from the nightlife in 2011 and moved away in 2020, we stayed connected through Facebook. It's funny how social media can quietly keep friendships alive across the years.
Thank you for the memories, the laughs, and the friendship, Isaac. You were one of the good ones, and I'll never forget those nights on the dance floor.
Rest easy, my friend. Until we meet again. 💙🕊️
