Words can't begin express what I felt when I got the news. I know God doesn't make mistakes and I know you are in a better place. You were that great friend who looked out for me growing up. The "Peedy" I will always remember growing up always had everyone laughing, always rapping, dancing, and just being silly.
Love you friend
