I lost a very good friend this week

[TMB]

This week started off real bad for me.  I lost a friend of 15+ years but have only met him face to face 6 times.

Like a lot of guys here and other forums I'll call and shoot the poop and consider them friends. Tenpoint5,CRG, Nepa's are just a few (to many to list) David like the rest of the guys I call was a guy I could call and say hey I need a (name it) and I would have it sitting in my stall at work within hours.  I know if I were in need I could call anyone of the "guys" and feel like a friend is really there for me!


David was one of those guys you meet in your life that you would consider family and yet never really had to see him face to face to feel that way. At anytime I would get a call and hear "hey I have a question" or "hey been thinking of your problem " and here's the fix.

David my friend I will miss you and with a tear in my eye as I type this I say good bye to a very dear friend :'( :'( :'( :'(

TMB,
I am so very sorry for your loss.  Those relationships are very rare.  This forum has several of those type of folks.  Just remember that you were better off for having known David all those years even if you did only see him face to face 6 times.  David knows...... and so do you.  That's all that matters.

I bid you peace for your loss.

Life has some sweet chocolates and some bitter sweets.

To know someone in your heart and to think of them like you do .....

Is the sweet part.

The bitter sweet is letting them go.

Our God is GREAT, but he has his on Rules.

David and You are Blessed for knowing each other.

Tommy, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss of a good friend!

When my Dad passed away a few years ago he reminded me of this quote that he had heard...

"Beginnings are scary. Endings are usually sad, but it's the middle that counts the most."
