To Chad's family and friends, I am sincerely sorry for your loss.
I knew Chad since kindergarten, when I called him friend during the days of nap-times, sing-a-longs, and frosted graham crackers. Sadly, the innocence of childhood ended too soon, and we took different paths in life. Thirty years have passed since those days of friendship and twenty since I've even thought of Chad. Still, I mourn for him what could have been, and grieve what was. I forgive the wrongs and pray that the friend of my youth might find himself in as peaceful a place as that childhood classroom.
