I lost a good friend today. [View all]

His name was Noel. He'd fallen and had a closed head injury that put him in a coma ...... they tried to wean him off life support and finally today the family decided they had to let him go. He was the kind of person who always had a warm, genuine concern for everyone around him and could make you feel happy just having talked to him. His silly giggle, his kindness and wicked sense of humour will never be forgotten. I'll miss him so much.



I hope everyone here is doing ok and wish you all peace and strength dealing with those you've lost and are missing so badly. I know not everyone is religious and apologize for those these songs might offend, I just really need something to believe in right now that lets me know he's gone to a good place. And don't mind me .... I've taken a whole bunch of stuff to get through this, so may regret it in the morning. My heart is just broken that I won't see him every again. He was such a special man.
