As 2018 comes to a close I continue to cope with the loss of my oldest son Jake. We lost Jake in May of this shitty fucking year... He was... Son, Grandson, Older Brother, Uncle, My First of Four Best Friends, The Protector of his Younger Siblings, Talented, Hard worker... I could go on and on...and although our taste in music, wardrobe and vehicles could not be any different, we were/are the same inside... I tried to teach him right from wrong, point out Life Lessons when they presented themselves, explain to him what it means to look someone in the eye while you firmly shake their hand, honesty, pride in your work, importance of family, finish what you start, stay away from the bad shit... all of that and more... somehow things went wrong for Jake... he struggled and lost... and because of losing that battle he will forever be 29 years old... Cliche... Time heals all wounds... well it ain't gonna heal this...and frankly I don't want it to.... Rest easy Buddy... I miss you every day...
I usually don't share personal stuff but thought I would for Jake... besides, nobody reads Blogs anymore.... do they? Well here are a few pics through the years....
