Condolence: What up Scuz!

Coming home from work the other day, I wanted to reach out to you and tell you about my exciting first day. You helped me thru a rough patch in my life, remembering the cow crap fights in the barn, climbing th barn and pushing each other off, throwing water balloons at neighbor kids, man we use to get into some s***, literally! The saying holds true about cousins being your first friends, all 8 of us. Days will come and go but there won't be a day I don't think of your. This truly takes my breath away, when thinking about it, I forget to breathe. I can't be there on Aug 27th, but know my heart, soul, and mind will be. Love you!

Condolence: My dear sweet David. I met you when I was 14 back in 1984 and for many years you and I were like glue. We did everything together and the fun we had doing it. With time I went one way and you went another. We never lost touch though..You got mad at me once because you came to see me and you were different, you were not the same person I knew and I had no problem telling you the path you were choosing would not lead to good places. You eventually came around but you and I both knew I was was right. You came to me a few weeks ago and we talked, I gave you the best advice I could but you had other plans. Never did I think those other plans would lead to me writing a memorial for you. I will admit my memories of you are that of a teenager spending most of her time telling you, " I just want to be friends" LOL...Although as we got older you did not push as hard, I knew the love you had for me was always there and just because the love I have for you was not the same kind, it was just as strong. I now and forever will always consider you my lifelong friend and I will miss you. I was crying the day you met me, it is actually why we met and I have cried everyday since I heard you left us. I stop now for I know I will see you again and I know when I do your arms will be out and you'll have that smirk on your face and you''ll simply say, "Hello Darlin'".
