God must have had a reason, though none of us will know or understand….your final dispatch.
May you have peace, may you always know you are being thought of by us here at Mc Devetts. As your dispatcher I will always remember our final conversation….to get that mowhawk and be who you are meant to be. Up in heaven you will do just that, only at peace.
