Nathan, I don’t know if you will read this or not. I hope so, because there are some things you should know.

First of all, I’m so grateful that we were friends at Ridgeway Briarcrest. Those were good days and having you for a friend was part of the reason why. I remember playing video games on our Commodore computers (I always envied you because you had a Commodore 128 while I was slumming it with a Commodore 64).

I still remember those field trips and slumber parties and hanging out at your house back when we were both still living in the Fox Meadows area. I especially remember my 4th grade birthday party at East End skating rink. I made the announcement that I was having my 10th anniversary. I think Andy set me straight when he informed me that aniversaries were for married people.

I’m sorry that I didn’t make more of an effort to stay friends with you when we both got to high school. It seems we ended up hanging with different crowds and lost touch. I wish we could have reconnected and shared all the good memories. It’s something I regret even today.

I hear you’re sick and don’t have much longer. It hurts my heart to hear that. To me, you will always be one of my best friends. I want you to know that.

I hope you’re at peace. I hope you know Jesus and know how much He loves you. I hope and pray that I’ll see you again in heaven. Maybe then we can tell stories about the old station wagon days.

I will always miss you,

Your friend,

Greg.
