Armand was baptized and confessed to Christ at an early age. Armand was very close to the Lord and would visit numerous Churches throughout Cleveland. Armand was laid back and non-confrontational, he believed in talking out your differences. Family was very important to Armand, he helped co-ordinate our family gathers because he believed family should always stay close. Armand was a very caring man; he was one of several caregivers to his beloved Grand-mother Clara. Whenever anyone was in need of comforting or needed assistance or a helping hand, your first thought was to call ‘Wolfie’, he was always there for you, showing up with that comforting, beautiful smile & dimples, you couldn’t help but to smile back. He would also visit Family and Friends to check in on them to make sure they were alright or if they needed anything or someone just to talk too. Armand loved to Party and enjoyed listening to music as well as Rapping and making music with his friends. He enjoyed hanging out & spending time with his friends and family or as he would say ‘just chillin’.

Armand you are deeply missed, you are etched in our hearts and we will remember you always and forever.
