While cleaning and organizing my daughters room, I came across a small photo album. Upon inspection a card containing an obituary and a photo of Cassidy fell out.
For those that don't know, Cassidy was my best childhood friend. From 3rd grade til January 21st of 2006.
On the front if the card is an ape with googley eyes, scratching its head, next to a bubble that says "you know what I think?" On the inside it says "I think youre nuts!....but i like you that way!" She signed it your friend with friend scribbled out and best friend Cassidy beside it with 3 lines under best....it was the first time she referred to me as her bestfriend.
I miss her terribly. She knew me best and never spared me when it came to advice. I'd really like to talk to her right now.
Because of her death, I grieve intensely for those I have not lost. It keeps me close to them. It keeps me kind.
