    I broke down when I found out you passed my friend. You had made a big impact in my life and in my moms life. You were one of the nicest, laid back, scenire people that I knew. I know you struggled hard my friend and so did I. When I got my life together I almost felt like I left you behind, and I found myself thinking about you often. My mom would always ask about you, she doesn't like most of my friends but you seemed to have touched her. I know you are in a better place and where you are there is no suffering. You impacted so many in a positive way, you showed me that it doesn't take much to be happy. I'm always go to miss you man, I love you!!!!! Rest in peace my friend!!!
