I'm so glad to have had some time to hang out with you in the last few years. I enjoyed getting to know the kind, loving and optimistic man that you became since we were in school together. It's truly amazing how fast our lives pass us by.
I'm praying for you tonight; for God's comfort and peace as your time draws near to enter into His presence. I'll pray also for your children and family, I know how much you loved them. I know they will miss you so much, and that they will have many unanswerable questions in the days and years to come.
I grew to love you like a brother, and I will miss the time that we won't get to spend together. I pray that God's love, grace and peace will be with you. I bid you a very fond farewell my friend. With love,
-Chris
