We met on november 1, 2005. I looked at you while i caught you somewhat staring at me on the bus. It was the day after halloween and i offered you some candy and you took it with no hesitation. After that day we sat by one another on the bus until i had the courage to ask for your number. I was afraid to call you right away but i decided to suck it up and call. We then started talking and until you got the approval to date me from my parents that's when we made it official on november 22, 2005. Five and half years later we stood strong and together or not you have always been there for me as a best friend. I appreciate all that you have done for me and i will follow your footsteps and pursue the dreams you wanted to follow in your name. I love you and there will be no other who will replace you. I will be all that you wanted me to be and so much more. 4.3.11 <3

My bestfriend , we met on my 5th birthday been best friends ever since. there will never be another person that walks the earth as you did, you had that one of a kind point of view and outlook on the world. Honestly don't know who i will confide in now, the only person that always had an open ear, and i always had an open ear for you whether it was girls, food, school, traveling,future plans. I hope i can live some of your dreams.

To my cousin, my heart hurts for your loss. I light a candle in the honor of your son and I pray as he travels on his journey he will see all the beautiful things that awake him. I pray that as he leaves you behind your heart will heal. Right now God, your precious memories of your son, and your family will help you make it through this. You will always be in my prayers.
Love all of you
