A fan wrote in the comments section, “This guy exudes such a positive energy that he tends to lift everyone’s spirit ❤️,” while another wrote, “I always loved his comedy, felt bad and supported his thoughts at his lowest time. No one can assume how happy I feel when I see him getting the love and respect that he always deserved for the kind of pure soul he is! More power and way to go!”
