We just spoke on the phone last week. You were concerned with my health. Only God knew it would be our last talk. By accident today, I opened the news paper of which i normally don't read, only to see your smiling face. I dropped to my knees, for it was God that led me to you. Rest in peace my friend, my tears today are for you being the friend that you are. Love ya Cleve!
