That is a good picture of you Cuz. Thats a picture of the guy I choose to remember, the one I used to laugh and joke with. The one who had a knack for needing a ride at the most inconvenient time (usually out of the blue), BUT I'd still "come swoop" just because he was hard to tell no and of course because it's Cuz. Somehow,we would always end up BS ing and talking for hours in my living room, over coffee like two old ladies. At some point we drifted or actually, I went away for a while ,then left state. I didn't see much in Peezle after that. But I'm glad we had those few years to get close and hang out when we did....Love ya Cuz-Roxy....PS Look out for Buddy Dog when he gets there..I think he'll be joining you soon
