To say I knew you a long time is technically true,
You were a joy to be around, and I treasure that always, too.
I know you will be at peace now, resting above the clouds,
With a clever little gleam in your laughing eyes.
But, there's so much I want to say, I just can't write it,
So settle for this:
"I'll miss you, oh so much"
*Kevin, this one goes out to you. You were 19 when an IED took you from us all last year on May 4, 2013, and I'll never forget you, man. You made the ultimate sacrifice. You were the bravest guy I ever had the pleasure of meeting and you were driven, literally, by your will to serve and protect and do what you felt was best. Just sucks that I had to lose you as a friend down here, but I know the Heavens earned a new Angel, one who's a true hero. Hoping to run across you again in the near future, bud. Hooah.
