Not sure what to say?

You are still on my mind every day. At least now the sadness of loss is mixed with some of the fond (and some not-so-fond) memories of our past. Growing up singing while doing dinner dishes, going on vacation, up to and including the close connection and confidence in our adulthood. I so desperately wish we had known how much you were struggling, we would have comforted you. This is an anniversary I never wanted to have, but forever cannot escape. Incredibly sad and missing you so much.

I only knew you for a short time but you patiently taught me the things I didn’t know & always greeted me by name, with a smile, regardless of how busy you were. I loved the conversations we had about our dogs. You will be missed my friend! Rest In Peace.
My Prayers are with all the Family. God Bless Each of You!
