have a lot of good memories he left me with and as I became older and moved away we were still only a phone call away .
He would always call me when he thought I needed a pep talk to keep me grounded being the hot head I am . We both shared the same views on the happenings on the world stage it was no where near the world we grew up in and was only getting worse . I developed a lot of health issues and he was always wanting updates and driving me to be positive and not give up and to work hard to pull through.
You have to focus on what you have not what you don’t have meaning if you can get around a little better it’s better than not at all . I am now in the fight alone no more calls or conversations just his voice in my head to help me press on .
He will be missed but love is an unbreakable bond that will forever rise above all else .
Till we are reunited in heaven may you RIP .
