Josh...this all still seems so unreal to me. You and I have been friends for years, and I am blessed to have known you and your family. Memories will never fade, and the new memories that are being made with my daughter and your son are keeping a smile on my face. I am gonna really miss you man!!



You and I will meet again
When we're least expecting it
One day in some far off place
I will recognize your face
I won't say goodbye my friend
For you and I will meet again
