Tre, where do I even get started with you. We have been friends ever since Primary school. You always had been such a loving and funny kid. All those memories we've shared I will never forget, that laugh and smile of yours is irreplaceable. No-one will ever take your place. You had your whole life ahead of you, you left way too soon but I guess its now time for you to spread your wings. I know you are with us, watching down on us. Until we meet again Rest In Paradise Tre Tre.
