To John, my dear friend of great faith. Life won't be the same without you and without our discussions on the taboo subjects of religion and politics. You quietly and humbly lived a life of conviction to the values and principles of the Church. Your old soul stood true.
So recently you smiled and said, "I'm doing just fine, Anna". And I truly believe you are doing just fine right now. When it is my time, I expect to see you in the crowd that will greet me on the other side. Until...
