RIP Steve G

Many years ago I had the pleasure of crossing paths with a young man named Steve at work. He was a fun loving and all-around good guy. We were employed in the same auto repair shop for about a year and then I moved on. At that point in time I had no clue I would never see him (alive) again.

I've said this before but I'll say it again. As people, we always think we have more time in life than there really is to do the things we should. So some twenty-eight years later I found out Steve was married to a good friend of my Sister's. They were good people and loving parents. Well, when I had a chance to look him up again just to say hi or share a beer, I never got around to it. To make a long story short he passed away around a week ago. I will always regret not taking the time to go and see him just for old time sakes.

Don't make the same mistake I made readers. You never know when when friend or family will be called home by the Holy Father. Don't put things off. Make time. I know Steve is in Paradise now and I will miss you and the good times we had many years ago. We most definitely partied hard. You've earned your eternal peace. Via Con Dios Steve. I'll see you again someday.
