When we first met you in a TN Group I knew our friendship was going to last. We knew same people from the Bronx, shared stories, was a pain supporter and I took you under my wing not to do TN surgery. I will miss the late night talks, witty humor, music and just youuuuuuu.
I will keep you in my heart...
Forever my friend
