- Today makes 8 long years
Yesterday when it started to snow... I thought of you, as I often do. I'll never forget that phone call from Joe, I thought he was playing a cruel joke on me or he just didn't know what he was talking about (you know how North side is....people love to talk...lol) Sad to say it was true. You were gone =( things haven't been the same since. I MISS YOU MY FRIEND...~XO

when the doctors were saying i was not going to live, you came to visit and pray. i didn't get the chance to thank you my friend. so it came to me as a shock to hear you passed away, but i'll say a prayer for you every single day.
i'll miss you and join soon one day
