My last moment with you in this life.

We don’t have many pictures since I’m never home, but some how we took this picture the last time we were together before I went back to nursing school. You were the center of attention that night with your singing, dancing, and picking on everyone like always. I remember there was a second where you sat on my lap in your purest form and you told makaylee/mom to take our picture. My favorite part about this is I remember we gave each other this biggest hugs like it was our last time together. At the time of the picture it just felt like we were kids again. Now… this picture, this memory—is how you will exist in my mind and live in my heart until we meet again. I love you always cousin.

My sweet friend

My sweetest friend ❤️ the one I could always count on and could always have a drink with. We became really close when I first moved to Denver City, and we were close up until his very last day. 😪 The life of the party in this life and in the next. I will forever cherish this beautiful friendship we had and all the wonderful memories. I hope heaven is treating you so well, till we meet again.❤️
