Well
I loved him. He was such a great friend, my best friend freshman year. And I guess we sort of grew apart after that. But I still thought and think that he was amazing, and is amazing and I won't ever forget him. Chris tells me he was very happy. In love, looking toward the future. As I guess he always did. He never got discouraged. Was never a defeatist. Always had time, although I don't know where he found it as hard as he worked. He was always in pursuit of life, hardly giving a thought to the knowledge that at some point, probably 8 or 10 years down the road, he would have to give that up. Turns out he did not have that long. But he never wasted any of the time that he had. Now at least I guess he's happy. And healthy. He's got nothing at all to worry about now. And for those of us who maybe didn't keep in touch as much as we should have, well, I'm sure he knows now that he is in our hearts, and always was, and always will be. And to those of you out there, remember to tell people you love them, or care for them, or miss them. Don't let chances pass you by. I'm glad we have each other to help us get through this.
