Today I learned of a past coworker but more importantly an old friend that passed away this morning. I can only think of how his lovely wife and children will miss him as well as so many people he called friends. There is a great many memories and stories I could tell and will have to remember him by. Our first day working together will forever be etched in my mind. From that day on, I considered him a friend.
Like so to often, things in life change and distances between friends grow further and further until it seems like there was never a past at all. Not with you though. Last time I saw you we hugged and spoke about our families and getting together with everyone from work. It felt like not a minute had passed from the last time we spoke. That was the type of guy he was. Simply a Friend.
"Why can't we get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together? I guess that wouldn't work. Someone would leave. Someone always leaves. Then we would have to say good-bye. I hate good-byes. I know what I need. I need more hellos." ~Charles M. Schulz
