It was the called the rocked my world. The words that I didn't want to hear on my drive home from having fun.

I thought that we would have more time to spend together but that was not to happen. I flew like the wind to get to your house. They have already taken you to the funeral home.

You were so happy the last time I saw you and that was last week. It was never good-bye when I was leaving your house. It was always see you later tator. It was are special good bye to each other.

See you where not just a patient to me your were my friend who I caught talk to about anything. You and I against the world.

You were very special person in my life. You we a veteran of a war that no one wanted to talked about. The stories that you tell me will last in my memories forever. That stupid agent orange would robbed me of a friend and your family also.

You were proud of what you did with your life when came back to home. Started a little family and was proud of the family that you would talk about.

Your life was filled with adventures that I got to share with you.

You were like a man with a cause to help other people that you could. I know that it may sound weird but I was proud to call you my friend and a veteran also.

I am hoping to meet up with again when I go to heaven. I know that you up with the rest of your family having a long talks with them along a river. Take your time enjoy that time up there because you deserve it.

You were my friend for only a short time because I had to have surgery but you always check in on me. Asking what new or did you watch the movie that I told you about.

You got me hooked on some of your favorite show just because they were Westerns.

You just have a birthday a few weeks ago and I know that it was a good one because you were at ease with it.

I have the memories of you opening the garage door and letting in to your house and world also. It takes a strong person to let a complete stranger come into you world. I hope that I made a differences in that world you called life.

I know that you were caring man and love to share it with the world.

You would say if I can see it so can you. You need to sit down you are working to hard or you need to make my favorite things to eat because you are good at it.

Like I said I will always have those memories because you and I made the memories in the short time we had.

Yes, there were time we would get on on each cases about something stupid. We always met in the middle again. I would hear what you do and you would like that I was ok when I answered you back.

There was one time you need you my house and I have to came in thru the kitchen window. You said that you would have loved to see me sitting in your sink. A song came to my mind. She came in thru the kitchen window and I was would sing it to you. You would smile.

So tator I will see you later. I hope that you are having fun.
