=============================================
I am seriously in pain ...
The most sickening kind of pain.
Loss
I lost my very good friend
I lost my business partner.
He was 56 with a wife, children
and more friends than an average
person could wish or hope for.
He was loved for just being himself.
Also something most people dream of.
In this abruptly ended life, His success
can not be measured with any known
device. Only materiel things are made to be
measured and what he gave to anyone
who was lucky enough to meet him ...
Was that spirit of kindness
The understanding and forgiveness
The shoulder to lean on and
that sincere smile that could
brighten the darkest moods.
With his strong headed & back both
he was never afraid to put either out -
to help out - those who needed it.
I was inspired by his warmth
In awe of his generosity and
truthfully a better man because
I was blessed to know him.
I will miss you my friend,
but I'm thankful to have had
shared great times and memories
with you, you were my teacher
and I honored to share the
wisdom that I was instilled.
Zeke (Bill) Died from a car accident.
Driving his treasured mint conditioned
convertible that he rarely drove.
He was returning home
after going to help out a friend.
He and I were partners in a small
painting business, but truth be
he was my friend & mentor.
Ironically, he helped me pull
my life back together after
losing my restaurant business
partner. Who was killed in a car
crash. I knew restaurants and
bars ...but really couldn't go
back into it after the blood
sweat & tears that I'd put
into running my own place
was wiped out from that wreck.
He taught me a new trade and
skills and gave me the freedom
of time I needed to rise my daughter.
He was the only person I'd made
plans to meet up with next week
to celebrate my birthday.
He was my best friend ...
and yet, just as my other 'best' friends -
went and died on me ...
If anyone ever wondered why I
kept this freaking wall around me
allowing people no closer than
an arm length -
All they have to do is look back
and think of who's been close and
see they're gone ... All from death.
I feel as though I curse those who
find themselves close, I know it's not
the case but jesus -
It's been going on since my preteens!
ugh

Sorry, I've gotten off track and feeling
sorry for myself.
I just cant believe he's gone! |
