RIP: Ram Ayala

RECEIVED Mon., June 27, 2005

Hey friends,
    I'm sorry to relay the news that your friend and mine, Ram Ayala, owner of Tacoland [in San Antonio], was murdered during an argument/robbery at his establishment Thursday night/Friday morning. His doorman Doug and bartender Denise were also shot during the incident but are expected to make it. Details are sketchy at the moment. Simple words cannot properly express the sadness and disgust I'm feeling. He'll be missed by many.
