    My sweet Terez now has his father at his side in heaven. @TerezPaylor’s dad, Sharmyn Elliott, had great appreciation for Kansas City + all who supported scholarships in Terez’s name. We proudly placed the proclamation @QuintonLucasKC granted to honor Terez in our family homes.

    I got slightly turned around in New York and told the nice man who helped me last night, I used to spend more time here. He asked, where are you from? I replied: Kansas City. He then said, “@Chiefs, best football team in the country. ❤️
