Chopper was the first love of my life. I just read of his passing and feeling so bad. Such a wonderful person to be around. I'm sure Lulu will show him the ropes in God's Kingdom.

"Eddie" was the first person I met my freshman year at Damien. We had every single class together that year. Because seating was alphabetical, he always sat in front of me. He had lots of friends, and since I didn't know many of the students, he took me in and introduced me to everyone. He was one of the funniest guys I've ever met, and I can still remember his infectious laugh. He had a heart of gold and was genuine. The greatest compliment I can give someone is to say that they are a good human being. He was, and will be missed. I haven't seen him since graduation, but I feel a great sense of loss. Rest in Peace Brother...
