Much love brother! I recently went to a good friend's funeral for his Mother who just passed. I've lost a lot of people already and I'm only 34 but I hadn't been to an actual service in a couple years and all I could think about was my parents and so it was very emotional. I know it's a cliche but I really always am living in the moment and looking forward, because that's all that counts while we're here.
Thank you for the kind words. I'm 38 and it really makes you mature when things like this happen.
