Hey 3 Letter, Still miss your face. I get happy thinking of all the memories with you and Ash. Then I get sad. With any trauma, we always try to distance ourselves from any aspect that reminds us. I have to remind myself of that, but it hurts. I miss my friends.

Nik, aka "three letter" (my husband Nick was "four letter)... I think of you, Ash, Sam, and all our memories very fondly. I so wish you wouldn´t have left this world, it was a better place when you were in it. Your happy face could make anyone´s bad day turn around. Miss you three letter.
