I still can’t believe you’re not here anymore. My best friend of ten years. You were wise beyond your years and I learned so much from you. You taught me to live a little and take chances and ill be forever grateful to you for that.. I love the way you loved your family and always looking out for everybody. I’m going miss you calling and talking about all the upcoming sales for Black Friday and you planning what to get everyone like that one year you could wait to get to gamestop , you said I’m getting this one and that’s for the family and dats it! Lol, always making me laugh no matter how bad I might have been feeling about something. Always clowning. So 2020 will be the first year without you teasing me about getting everyone appointment in before you. I’m going miss you forever. Sleep in. Peace my friend. I’m sorry I didn’t get to see one last time but I’m glad you’re not in pain. Love you Jay.😪
