I miss you so much. There are so many things I want to tell you. I posted a few pictures the other day and I just knew you´d call to make fun of me. The silence was deafening. Rest well dear friend. The sun shines a little less bright without you present.

Jeff there are no words..., but there is love so much love for you...I am going to the St. Mary's chapel to pray and to send you love. I guess I could do that from anywhere, but considering our journey together at St. Mary's it just feels right to go there to the chapel. I am so grateful for our time together thank you for being so genuine, so sweet, so adventurous and fun. I will remember you, miss you, and love you forever Jeff...
