I miss you so much. You made such a deep impact on my life. You changed everything I thought I knew about love, friendship ,honesty and happiness. You will forever be in my heart and often on my mind. The most important thing you ever said to me besides "I love you." Was "I will never make you look bad." And you didn't. Not once. You were the most beautiful wonderful man. I love you baby and I miss you. Saying goodbye has been the most difficult thing I ever did. Thank you for watching over me and guiding me like the angel you always have been to me, like my gaurdian angel now. Thank you for being a part of my life, thank you for letting me be a part of yours. For showing me your big beautiful heart. I'm trying to move on with my life now, while still there is this void in my heart. I know that you would want me to do my best to take care of my health, sobriety, and you would want me to love again. It's not easy. It's the most difficult thing I've ever done , but I keep fighting for a life you would have wanted to give me and wanted me to have , everyday. And I do this for you, to honnor you. I live. I try so hard to just live for you . The way you would have wanted me to , with no fear ,nor regrets, never giving up. Always giving love freely and never judging anyone.

It saddens me to know that Lester no longer walks among us. I knew him briefly, but considered him a friend.
