Dear Chris:
Although our lives were miles apart, I often thought of you and how you blessed our family. It was your strong arms that held us when we cried, and your tender hugs the embrassed us when we were sad. You will be missed.
"I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next."
