He was a good friend, steel sharpens steel, he had my love, my respect and to this end my gratitude and admiration.

I knew him to be humble, yet firm in his convictions, stubborn at times and equally as forgiving of the failures of others. At times withdrawn yet would enjoy a hearty laugh in good company. He would share in your disparity and yet provide a comforting word or hand on your shoulder.

He was far greater than the sum of his parts.

He was my friend.
