    RIP my friend. I am going to miss running into you in Lawrence when I would come to town.

    Many times I have thought about our times as teenagers. You were my big brother, and I would get so mad at you following me everywhere. But, you did it out of love, and that’s ok.

    I had paybacks for you too. Remember the movies and the popcorn.

    I am sure you are reading this as I write it. The fun we had. For what it’s worth, I love you my brother in friendship. RIP!
