Not sure what to say?

It is funny that I got this message today because last night for some reason I was thinking and talking about Berry and how nice he always was to me.

I often think of him and how wonderful he was to me. He was truly a good friend to all he shared his life with.

He was a special f riend I felt I could always count on to be there for me. He always made me feel special ad I always remember him.

He was ALWAYS upbeat and I learned something new every time we talked. Incredibly nice man. I had been missing him as of late but I knew he was struggling physically. And now he is gone...
