After TBI I was having many challenges that frightened me. I lived in Chicago at the time but would drive to South Louisiana to visit my family and I always made a point to see this amazing man. He helped me navigate life when fear was so powerful. I will be forever grateful.
Thank you Mr Veillon. You saved my life. You gave me hope. My life became so much better because of you. I will never forget you and the kindness you showed me. RIP.
Berk was an esteemed cousin and true friend. Our thoughts and prayers are with Vince, Ann Vivian, Bernard and all the family. Jerry and Janell Foret
