Little late finding this site and filled with joy to see so many saying great things. To say the least, I was crushed when my wife showed me the Facebook posting of his passing.
Felix was perhaps my oldest and dearest friend. We were friends at first sight in 1st grade. We spent many days in our youth hunting and fishing and overall as we grew, doing stupid things and always having great fun. We maintained contact throughout the years with different frequency, but when we got together it was always two old friends who took up right where we left of and enjoyed sharing significant parts of our lives and having fun together.
I wish for Lindy and kids to heal over time and always keep that great laugh of his in mind. He will always be in our hearts and mind.
Dear Lindy, please accept my deepest sympathy and condolences for the loss of your Felix. I pray that God guides you through this difficult period of grief and helps to give you and your sons strength during this difficult time. Felix was a great guy and will never be forgotten. Peace be with you dear friend.
