    Rest in Peace my friend. So unbelievable that you’re gone. I will truly miss you. I am very thankful that we remained friends after graduating high school. You always made Norma and I laugh. We sure had some good times together and I’ll remember them forever. You are at peace now and you are in pain no longer. Miss you already.
