My best friend loved his family more than anything else. He read constantly, loved fishing and the great outdoors and playing pool with friends. He also loved music, history and often imparted that knowledge to others. He loved to tease and always had a joke, quip and a nickname for everyone. His heart was generous and very tender toward others, always with a helping hand when needed. He burst into song frequently and always had a smile. His friends were many.He did love life and this quote fits him, I sorry I can't give credit to an author : "Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used-up, totally worn-out, and loudly proclaiming, 'Wow! What a ride!'
It's been a year but the pain is still very sharp. I have had such wonderful support from family and friends and appreciate that so very much. My world will continue and I hope to live it as he would expect me to. I know that family and friends miss him very much as well and with their great support and so many wonderful memories we will try.
