Dear Chase,
I dont think ive cried as much as i did yesterday in a very long time. I hope you know that you were and still are very much loved by so many people and i hope you realize just how many lives you have touched, even if it was in the smallest way. Your service was beautiful and i admire your family so much for their strength. I dont know how your dad could have the courage to speak in front of a crowd of people, even if loved ones, and still have a smile on his face. He seemed so at peace and there i was, who hadn't lost half as much as him, breaking down and crying. You have left impressions on so many people and i hope you realized that by seeing everyone yesterday. Im sorry i couldn't help you through your problems and i'm sorry we didn't hang out that much. I'm sorry i didn't pick up on the fact that something was wrong. I'm sorry we didn't have more time together. Please help your family to be strong and help them to find the answers they are searching for. I know nobody can truly understand the full extent of what you were feeling, but the least we can do is to try. You will always be remembered and many will hold a special place in their hearts for you. You were such a great person and i am glad i had the gift of knowing you, even if it was just for a short while. Going along with Jackie, "you will always be our freshman". This isn't goodbye, because I know we will meet again.
