Hello my friend. I´m sorry, it´s been 10 years since I wrote on here. I´m sorry! You´re in our thoughts every single day. Every time I walk out and see you house across the road, it brings back so many memories. All good except being at the hospital that tragic night... I hope you´re fishing up there on a beautiful boat. So much has happened in 10 years, but I´m sure you already know that. Anyway I just wanted to say happy Memorial Day weekend. This is a hard day, every year. I keep you...

My dear friend, you are sadly missed every single day! I can't believe it's been 6 years. Every day I am outside I think of you. Every time I hear a Harley come down our road, I think of you. Every time I hear loud exhaust down our road, I think of you. Every day I check the mail, I think of you. On this day, 6 years ago everyone's lives changed, permanently. Barry has never been the same. He misses you daily as well. A little piece of us is always with you. Fly high my friend. Keep looking...
