Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know that are happy... May your heart and soul find peace and comfort.

I met you in the funniest of ways, you wanted to beat me up in middle school. How funny that two years after that first encounter we would become best of friends. You were a big man with a bigger heart. An intimidating figure who was put on this earth to love and protect those who loved you. As I mourn you leaving us, I will also cherish and celebrate the life you lived. I love you my friend, see you in heaven.
