We were friends for quite a few years and the last time we saw each other was when i came up for my brothers services a few months ago. It meant a lot to have your friendship and support then as it did in the past. We had a lot of fun when we worked together and even after that because we would give each other a hard time when we saw each other just like brothers. You will be missed my friend RIP
