It just breaks my heart to see you go. You still look like that little boy I remember so well. I used to babysit you and your brothers with your Uncle Brian. Even though I hadn't seen you since you were little, I thought of you from time to time and would ask your uncles how you were and what you were up to. I wish I had the chance to meet you as a man. I am terribly sorry for your family, as they are very dear to me and by extension so were you.
