He was 50 years old. Over the last two decades, the Brooklyn, NY native was known for gospel radio hits such as "Be Right," "Let Go and Let God Have His Way," and his annual Christmas jam, "The 12 Days of Christmas."
A wake and musical tribute will take place Friday, October 14, 2022 @ 6 PM ET with a homegoing service (funeral) taking place on Friday, October 15, 2022 @ 9 AM ET.
