I know that it's not needed for me to say how sorry I am that a cherished, loved, and respected loved one is gone. But that loved one, well, he was never meant for life on Earth. I believe most of us will find that deep down, we knew he was never meant for a long life. He had a purpose that was being satisfied just existing in each of our lives and the impact that he had on us was uncontrolable, uncomparable, rare, was strong and possitive. And we know that because of how much he meant to us, how much he stood out, how much he had to offer and how very little that seemed to be returned to him... though he never noticed any of this. I know that I have never met someone so unique. He was rare... he was so optomistic in times that no one could see the light as the sun shone down in their eyes. he was kind, trustworthy, loyal, extremely intelligent, passionate beyond messure for the things he loved and believed in, caring, unselfish, funny, personable, openminded, unjudging, a visionary & peacemaker amongst his friends, advisor, outgoing, confident, need I go on? So as you remember all the times, remember all the conversations, remember all the good and bad... pay attention to everything he wanted and believed in. Every bit of knowledge or growth you gained, lock it away so you never forget but also move forward with it. He did what he was put here to do, and let us all be thankful that he made it to where he belongs. He is at peace and would never want to see you suffer. Celebrate him, be pleased with his life. Although it was short, and he is and will always be missed, the life he lived was above most, if you look at his success in being a good man to all he knew.

Brenda and Family,
I am so sorry for you loss, This came as a shock to everyone. I will never forget Bootz for as long as I live. Not only did he make a dark time of my life light up everytime I talked to him, but he cared about all of his friends deeply. If you were friends with Bootz you were family. I miss him dearly. If you ever need anything or just to talk you just ask.
Love you all,
Sam
