Your are already so missed my friend. You've always been loved, you had that way about you, lol. People gravitated to you like a magnet, you had that kind of personality. I don't believe that A you are born, B you die, and what you do in between determines if you go to heaven or hell. Our souls incarnate over, and over again, learning lessons as we go through each. We'll see each other again my friend...we'll see each other again..
