My dedication to Joseph84

@MikefromEP: Not exactly, he died in his new home in San Francisco on the bay. He had been a member here for a bit until he got to the point of hospice care. He died with a smile on his face after writing a few special letters to a few of us who loved him. His family and I have remained in close contact and I am considered "family"...his family knows the truth. I have full support and love of them and that keeps me going Mike.

@Coyotedave611: I shocked you with my hummingbird memory too though..

@MikefromEP: Yes you did Mike, and I cherish the words. I'm going to bed now, but thank you so much. I am sending words he would want me to share with you. "Be happy it's important"...we had long forgiven each others transgressions, his last words to me were, "David, when it's your own time, will you seek to find me?"...thats not a "gay" sentiment, it's simply the pure, unconditional love that transcends what people assume as "normal" love. I am going someday to where he is, and thats what keeps me going now. Mike, be happy, be kind to others, hopefully in some other place we will too see each other again as well.
