I was so sorry to read about Brian. As a teacher at Weimar Hills, I taught all of your boys and remember them all as delightful young men.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Green, Chris, David and Kevin,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I was broken to hear about Brian. I'll always cherish the time I was able to spend with Brian and your family in 5th and 6th grade. We had some great times zipping down the zip line from the tree fort, playing nerf gun wars in the hall and staying up all hours of the night playing Nintendo games. Brian was a good friend and he will be greatly missed.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
