Today a friend was laid to rest. I only knew him briefly but he is a kind, gentle and warm soul. His journey continues and we'll all met him again.
He made sure today was a beautiful and sunny day, birds chirping. So i honor him and his memory on this page with pictures, made possible because he brought clear skies to us all.

You are missed but will never be forgotten, friend.
