Dusty and I grew up together. My brother Rick and I were always spending the night or camping with Dusty and Jay. Dusty was on our Boxing team. He was tough as a boot. Dusty was a very good friend he will definitely be missed. Much love to his family!
Your presence will be greatly missed by everyone who had the privilege of knowing you. Rest in peace, friend.
I’ll be there!
