Hi mom. We always used to joke about you leaving us voicemails with all your stories, so we could keep hearing them after you're gone. Now I wish you'd done just that. But I also know it would have been little comfort compared to hearing your laughter as you retold them to me. You know I'm going to miss hearing them. I'm going to miss you, forever. I love you so much.

Patrick my good friend I recall how you would take your mother out for rides frequently and how you were always there for her.
No person could wish a more devoted son.
Rest easy my friend you will have a life full of memories.

When I think of you, I imagine you're still sitting outside listening to the birds in the trees. I often found you on the back porch and I treasure our conversations there. I love that you always had time for me. Whether it was a performance on the guitar that I had just learned an hour before, reading a book together for school or asking about life. I'm thankful that despite hardships you still found reasons to smile and poke fun. I love you
