View all 108 ReflectionsDear Keith,
Twenty years ago tonight, the world stopped, completely stopped! I look back and it seems so long ago, yet it feels like yesterday when one simple word changed the meaning and direction of life, for so many who loved you ......that word was "Hello".
The years have past, but your memory is very much alive, each and every day in conversations and in our hearts.
I love you and miss you every day,
Deborah Dees
