View all 245 ReflectionsWhat can I say, buddy? I wear your wristband and remind myself to slow down and remain calm. I've always been high strung and you were the calm logical one. Jamie Carrigan has become so great too and I know you're proud of him. I wish you were here. You'll never know the reach and effect you had on all of us. By the way, I misplaced a belt keeper the other day and I blame you. I'm sure you hid it. I love you and continue to grieve your loss like it was yesterday. Till we meet again.
