I was thinking about you today as the memorial band I had made for you arrived. I will wear it with honor my friend. I have very fond memories of you and all the times we spent together laughing and just cutting up in New Brockton and Troy. You were there for me thru the darkest time of my life and I will forever love you for that and want you to know I still consider you one of my dearest friends. Rest Easy Brother and thanks for all the good times. You are dearly missed.
Till Valhalla Brother
