I will never forget the day you became my friend and the help you have always been willing to give. You were a extremely giving person and will always hold a special place in my heart and soul. Oh yeah and I will never forget the night you painted my fridge and kitchen counters with macaroni cheese and mustard. Thanks for all the great memories my homie, I will see you in due time. I still find it difficult to realize you're gone to a better place.
