Rest in Peace, dear friend.
I will always remember your strength of character, love of family and friends, your sense of humor, and your courage. An old Irish poem comes to mind when I think of you…
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
With much love
I shall miss you …. I’m lucky to have known such a wonderful man. Thank you for being that amazing friend .. Gonna miss your hugs and your stories.. thank you sir for your friendship. Love you
