Skid.. was a friend of mine for 20 years. He will be missed dearly. Every time I came into town he was one of the people that I made sure to visit. He had a way of putting a smile on my face even when I didnt feel like smiling. My prayers and thoughts go out to all of the people in his life that were fortunate enough to have known him.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
