Dear Ric and Stephanie

You are my oldest friend.s You had the pleasure of knowing me at my best and during the prime of my life. I had the honor of witnessing you at your worst and most troubled era in your life. Somehow we managed to love each other Thru it all and always with Gods grace. Honestly now it is I who am living an emotionally troubled life. And you are still very much at peace with my family, and you are friends whom I respect the most. You live the life Christ modeled in every way. It is an honor to have seen you grow into the couple you have become. You are not perfect, but you live your truth as honorably as you can, one day at a time, one struggle at a time and one triumph at a time. Thank you for caring about yourselves enough to keep moving forward to forever being willing to grow. Your mothers would be proud. I am humbled that you still love me, inspite of whom I’ve become. Your love and friendship and loyalty in hard time is even greater than my own family’s. I never ever thought that I could be so blessed. You used to say my family insired you. Now it is your family who inspires me and mine! Wow.
