Well, it has been hard for me to deal with you being gone Jonathan. I haven’t even had the strength to write something on here. It is hard to put my feelings into words. Ever since I was little our moms have been friends and I have always considered you my brother. Whenever I needed someone to talk to I knew you would be there for me. I still have the emails we wrote while you were in Iraq and throughout the years. When I was going through a rough time in my life, I looked to you for guidance. You gave me words of encouragement that truly helped me and changed my life. I thank you for everything you have done for me. Everyday I looked forward to getting the letters you mailed, the emails and the phone calls. There was nobody else like you Jonathan. You were one of a kind. You know how much you mean to me. I cant wait to see you again. I love you and miss you Jonathan.
