R.I.P. Dave
R.I.P. Julian
Two more great souls returned to the heavenly Father far too soon.
Julian, I'm sorry you never had the chance to experience the world. But believe me, people who have never had the honor of meeting you loved you. You touched so many. You brought people together by your very existence. I was hoping I could watch you grow up with your mommy and daddy. But now daddy is by your side again. He told you he will always be there for you, and he is. Keep smiling Lil guy. You are no longer suffering. You will never be forgotten. My kids will know your story.
Dave, we became real tight over the last 2 years. Especially after Julian was born. We just hit it off. Great minds think alike. Your strength was legendary. Your character, one of a kind. You always knew what to say to bring a smile to people's faces.
You'd give the shirt off of your back to help those you cared for. With everything happening with Julian, you powered through it all. It truly is an honor to be your friend. As I told Julian, you will never be forgotten. I will always raise a glass to the two of you. You kept your promise to Julian. You said you will always be by his side. Although your absence here pains those that love you, you are with your little warrior. And he is nothing short of that. You will be missed, but more importantly you will always be remembered.
Sabrina, I can't imagine the pain you are enduring. But know this, you will never endure it alone. No words or actions will truly relieve you, but I hope what I say helps. If there is anything I can do for you not just now, but anytime, just let me know. If it is OK with you, I would like to carry a picture of the 3 of you around. Wherever I go I will take a picture with the pic of the 3 of you. This way, Julian can see the world vicariously.
