My deepest condolences. I really hate that I didn't stay in touch like I wanted. I was just thinking a week or so ago about coming to see you...I just didn't know you would leave us so soon. You are so very special to me. You are in a much better place now. We will meet again. Love you my friend. Ali.

Rest in Peace my friend. My heart is so sad. Small town classmates hold a sacred place in our hearts. Though time and distance separate us, sweet memories of school experiences, solidify a bond of speciality.Then, in older years, & reconnection occurs, we reflect back on yesteryear. I will forever be grateful for your counsel to me, when I posed so many question of concern for a loved one, and how to handle a particular challenge. You're life experiences, and your mistakes offered 20/20 vision to my worries. I will truly miss your wit, your daily post, and our frequent updates of our days happenings. I still can't believe you've gone on ahead of us, so soon, but I'm happy that for you there is no more suffering. Watch out for us all, would ya' buddy? Send Laura a special message that you're still around, in only a unique way that brother and sis can understand. Love ya' big guy. glad to call you my friend!
