I teared up at the thought that I was loved so much by this beautiful carpenter that he would prove it to me by slowly dying in front of me, his boys by his side, three sweet-talking felons bleeding out like John Leguizamo in the Baz Lurhmann movie. Best of all, he timed his death perfectly: He died young but not at the age of dorm room poster cliché. He was locked in at thirty-three, the age J.Lo was when she filmed “Jenny from the Block,” young forever thanks to their pretty brown skin.
