Dear Mr. McCaffery,
I don't know if you are interested in such messages now that you are in the Spirit World but in case you are, I just wanted to say that I wish that I had said "Hi" and shaken your hand more offen.
So many times I am guilty of talking at people, instead of to them- heart to heart.
I could have done better at that with you. I certainly had many opportunites. I hope that your unexpected loss will awaken a greater sense, within my heart, mind, and soul, of taking a few more seconds to kinder and more sincere, to more people each day.
I know in my heart of hearts that there is an afterlife, and as such, I look forward to being a more sincere and kinder person to you, when we meet again on the other side.
Sincerely,
Chris Hele
