#15: Dre Kirkpatrick
Even though we all lead very different lives, with different career paths and choices, we are all human and experience many of the same things at the end of the day. And just because you are in the limelight because of your career, doesn’t mean you haven’t had to experience some hard things yourself.
The San Francisco 49ers cornerback, Dre Kirkpatrick has many different tattoos, but there is one that he holds close to his heart. He has his cousin’s name, Terrance tattooed on his right arm. Terrance died of cancer at 17 and left behind 2 kids… Kirkpatrick says “I always had a soft spot for him. He taught me a lot, and I just wanted to remember him by putting his name on my skin.”
