Rest On My Classmate you will be missed.
I am so heart broken to hear that my buddy has passed on to the other side. Well, I should be rejoicing for him, but my heart is broken.
We went to school together and worked at Robins AFB together. In fact we shared the same office. When he retired he had lots of plans to get his farm up and running. Life was cut too short.
