Time has passed, but thoughts of you and our friendship linger. If you're looking down, I didn't get fat!

It's been a couple years since you left us for heavenly pastures, but your spirit lives on! I fondly think of you standing before me with that devilish grin & twinkle in your eyes. You are missed, my friend.

Looking at that mug of yours on this remembrance, I smile with fond thoughts of you! I can hear your laugh & wise words told to me; like: "don't get fat, women in retirement get fat"! You are missed by many, but I'm certain everyone in heaven knows you! You are a beautiful soul.

I was saddened to learn of Elkan's passing. He was full of life and I so enjoyed our conversations. My one regret is not visiting him after his recent move back downtown. I will always remember him with love in my heart. He provided emotional & professional support to me when I needed it most and I will be forever grateful. Rest in peace, Elkan.
