Marco you were my best friend in life.
You are responsible for the person I am today. I will miss all the time we spent together, on all the roadtrips we took, but most of all, I will miss you! Rest in eternal peace my friend.
"Those that die never really die, for they live on in the hearts of those that love them." To my oldest and dearest friend in life,
Good-Bye.. Marco
