Omar was an avid Chiefs Fan and enjoyed his family outings.  He loved music and (hooking beats).  He was a comedian at heart.  Anyone who knew Omar knew that he loved his “OLD SCHOOL CADILLACS” and his curls draped on his shoulders.  (His mother would always tell him “Here he comes ‘THE LAST PIMP STANDING’).”  Don’t forget he was known at the Executive Lounge as “CHICKEN KING” when he served his chicken wings.
