I didn't know you personally except from many mutual friends, but I can feel the love, pain, and all around passion your loved ones have, so much to where I feel like I'm missing you too. Your existence impacted so many people in such a positive way and I hope you felt that. I hope you still do. I hope your soul is at peace, wherever it may be.
