I will forever hold this ache in my heart for you.
All of the death I have encountered in my career doesn’t even come close to the heart ache I have for yours.
Our village is so small, but you were such a big part in it.
Bigger than I think you even knew.
I wish I would have told you, I will make sure to the next time we meet.
Save a margarita for me, we miss you so much already!
