How many people are there whom you can say have left no negative memory in your life?
That is what I would say about my dear friend Brian who recently died. He has left
a great and positive mark on me. I never talked to him without laughing at least once or without feeling better for having done so.
Over the last thirty five years he has followed us and kept in touch no matter what has
been going on in either of our lives. We shared all the scares and fears and joys and pains of the issues of parenthood, marriage, health, finances and just plain life along the way. He made the effort to never lose the connection. I am grateful that he felt we were worth that effort. I am grateful to have known him.
I will miss him for the rest of my life.
