Our first night as roommates we snuck onto the new north roof, and just talked for hours, getting to know one another. That first day encounter, and every day of the 8 months that followed as roommates, were filled with unpredictable fun. Always upbeat, ever inviting, and ferociously fun – that’s who you were. I’m so glad to have known you. I’ll always remember you as brother-one who was righteous beyond belief. Rest in peace man. I’ll miss ya every day. I’ll raise a glass to you every day forever.
I look forward to talking to you in the sky. I’ll always know when you paint a sunset. I will miss the joy you bring every day.
Till we meet again
New north room 2223 forever
