It is with profound sadness that the CAAAI family announces that 'A GENTLE GIANT' has gone home to his glory. William Oscar Agard Jr., known to many as 'Junior' or 'Scar', completed his earthly journey on Thursday October 19, 2023. Those of us who knew Junior would remember a man whose demeanor was represented by quiet speech, always well dressed for any occasion, maintained an air of absolute professionalism, and respected everyone he encountered. Scar was one of the CAAAI’s fundamentalist who was dedicated to the Association and its principles of 'Giving back'.

Your CAAAI know that words cannot explain or express how you and your family must feel at this time, but we all have a sense of your loss at the passing of your dear ones. This is the time when family and friends are meaningful as a sustainable force for each other, so the CAAAI hopes that in some small measure we could offer you words of encouragement, support, love, and peace.
