Oh my heart There’s nothing quite like being late to the punch huh? I can’t believe im finding out now. I’ve been calling and texting you with no response and had that horrible gut feeling something was wrong.

Oh Cheif you were my good friend old man. I’ll never forget the day I met you. And I’ll never forget a single conversation we had.You were my angel. I remember you said your name was Cheif when we first met and then months later to my surprise finding out you shared the same name as my father just blew me away. You were such a beautiful soul. You helped me sooooooo much. The day you asked me if I was Native was the first day our friendship began and it was a beautiful 5 years. Your Collector item Zcars you ALWAYS gave me rides home in every night. Every night for the 3.5 years I worked at Mel’s diner you showed up at my work no matter what to make sure I got home safe because you knew I was walking home 2.5 miles in the dark. You bought and had made the most beautiful tribal necklaces and earrings for me.

Every holiday and birthday you’d show up at my restaurant and have a little gift box in your hand and give me something beautiful each time. You knew I was all alone and my dad had just died and you showed me so much kindness and never with an ounce of awkwardness. You my friend were the definition of a true man. A respectful man. A genuine and loving man. You helped me so much and were always there for me And I WILL FOREVER BE GRATEFUL FOR EVERY MOMEMT WE SHARED
.
Fly high Cheif
Love you always
And I can’t believe this is The last time I’ll get to say this...
