You were my best friend. I thought of you everyday, and every night. I thank god we had such a good relationship. You helped me whenever you could. Ok, maybe you complained a little. But I always knew how much you cared and loved me. We will meet again. Hopefully not for a long time, but I will see you again. And when I do, I can't wait to give you a big hug and tell you how much I love you!
