11:51 am. 11:52. I know that we didn't see each other as much as we did when Our Place was still open but I'm going to miss you just as if I still saw you everyday. I'm so thankful for the conversations we had when you were in the hospital. I really thought you would get better. RIP brother. 11:54 am
