Me and David had been friends since 5th grade to 7th grade. I can admit he was a very funny little dude

Me and david became friends in 7th grade, we were in the same friend group and always would hang out at football games. but something I enjoyed was that me and him would play truth or dare at 3am, we dared each other to scream outside, we both lied about doing it. we would also play 21 questions. My favorite memory of him was everything during lunch, he would always make me laugh.

Me and David became friends in kindergarten. We had the same class and shared a love for video games. No matter how far apart we drifted, he was always there for me. We used to always play video games together for hours, walk around town and he was one of the few people that would listen to my hour long explanations of my many obsessions. I will definitely miss him, and I have lost an amazing friend.
