RJ, you were a light in this world that will never be seen again. There are many many people in this world but few will ever be as amazing and loved as you. You had a spark about you that made everyone and anyone who met you fall in love with who you were. There are so many people in who will remember and cherish having known you. Joann, Richard, Toni and Gene,
Your son was a treasure to this world who few will ever match. Try to take comfort in knowing all of his battles are now at rest...

Who cares if one more light goes out?
In a sky of a million stars
It flickers, flickers
Who cares when someone's time runs out?
If a moment is all we are
We're quicker, quicker
Who cares if one more light goes out?
Well I do

Richard (RJ) and I have become friends over the past few years, he was a very bright and amazingly polite / well mannered young man. I will not forget about his unique/cool style of clothing/sunglasses, his love of music, his warm smiles and his gentle heart. The Word of God tells us that love covers over a multitude of mistakes, Jesus is the very definition of love... in other words, love has a name and its Jesus; so I pray, that RJ would find his peace and be covered by His love. Richard...
