Dylan has been my friend for years.
We have certainly had our differences, but I just learned of his death tonight and I can't stop crying.

I miss you, dear friend...
I've been worried sick since you stopped responding and know I know this is why..
I know I'm far away, but I love you.
Rest in Peace.

I met Dylan at his grandfather's print
shop. He was always a polite and pleasant
young man who was usually occupied with doing home work for his classes or diligently working on tasks assigned him by his grandfather. I am truly saddened by Dylan's passing, and Dylan's family
have my sympathy and my wife's sympathy as regards their great loss. You folks are in our prayers. R.Martin
