Remembering JR on this sad anniversary.....from 3/21/2005

JR died today.....
The call we all dread arrived in the form of an email. It was from Chris and simply said "call me, URGENT." I saw that Chris was on-line and sent an instant message.
"what's up?" I asked. "Call me" Chris wrote. Meanwhile, I saw another instant message coming in from my godson Jay. I asked Chris if I should respond to Jay's IM first and he said NO, call me.
I called Chris to find out that my big baby, my best friend (Chris's brother and Jay's father) had died earlier this evening as a result of an automobile accident.

JR.....In dying, you are not alone.
A part of me has died with you today.
