Well last night marked 5 years since we spoke. I replay your voicemail messages just to hear your voice. We think of you and talk about you often. There are many times Octarius says "I wish I could tell Jerry this" and these are the times we miss you. Happy 5 years of being that special angel for Jessica and that best friend angel for us. We miss you. Sending love to the heavens today and always. Cheers
