I´ve been searching for my old friends Keith, Kelly, and Jimmy Brown for years. We grew up together in Nanticoke, near the West Side Playground, and shared so many memories. Their last name made it hard to track them down, but I never stopped looking.

Today, I came across an obituary from 2020 and was heartbroken to learn that not just one, but two of my closest childhood friends, Keith and Kelly, have passed away.

I´ll always remember how kind your mother was to me-she treated me like part of the family whenever I came over, though she was always strict with you guys. Those memories will stay with me forever.

Keith and Kelly, may you both rest in peace. I only wish we could have reunited before this happened. Hopefully, one day, I´ll see you both again in another life.

And to Jimmy-I´m so sorry. I wish I had found you guys sooner, and I hope you´re doing well.
