Marc,

I stood at your grave yesterday as we laid a wreath on it and thought about you. I looked at Lila, Marc Jr, and Lauren and thought of what you sacrificed for us all. It has been ten years since I left you a message here and I hope some glimmer of you has lived on in me during this time. Thanks again for encouraging me to take this job. Rest easy and keep watching over us all. Until we meet again, friend.
