Thinking about how fleeting life is, Soggy Doggy lamented Mandojo’s passing and sent his sympathies to his friends and family.

“My heart is in great pain, I will miss you very much my brother and friend.
“Rest in peace. Mandojo, surely human life is very short on this earth. Sorry brothers, relatives and friends and I’m very sorry my brother @domokayatz God’s work has no mistakes.”
