Rest in peace, carnal. I been thinking about you all day and all night, and it still doesn´t feel real. This one really hit me. I told my family what happened, even told Cheerio... just so people know your name and what you meant to me.

I want you to know you´ll never be forgotten. Ever. I keep thinking about those talks we used to have about going to Mazatlán together. Crazy how you got there before me. Save me a spot and let me know how the view is from up there.

Love you always, carnal.
