“He might not consider himself a hero,' Ronnie Lillard said about George Floyd. 'But he became a social justice icon for change, and that’s heroic.'
He"wanted to see his community change" and"leveraged his street relationships to help forge church in the area," he said."Every guy who was selling drugs on that block ended up coming to Bible study. That’s George Floyd’s impact."
“He would jump right in and help set up and take down chairs for church services on the basketball court, and he helped drag pools over for baptism services," Paul said. “Big Floyd was always full of joy, and loved everyone around him." Noticing their resemblance early on, the two called each other"twin" and remained friends."We always hung together, every time I went to Houston, it was my first stop to pick him up," Jackson said.He quickly found a job working as a security guard at a downtown Salvation Army store, where he met his girlfriend, Courteney Ross.
