My Dear Friend

My Dear Friend

I recently came across this photo of my friend, Christopher Owen Cook, who died unexpected on August 8, 2004 of a very aggressive cancer at the age of 33. I thought it only fitting that I link it to my journal entry of him.

I miss you buddy. I'll see you on the other side. And save me some ribs!

Very sorry, and it's a nice tribute.

Amen! If I learned anything from his death, it's that our time here on earth is precious. don't take any of it for granted. No day but today, right Miss Mitch!

i just lost a childhood buddy of mine last friday. from diabetes age 44...and then monday the world lost steve irwin..the aussie mate in animal planet, he had an infectious energy about him.

i agree Chris, life is indeed fleeting. a mere speck of dot in eternity...lets not throw away relationships in this age of disposable this and disposable that.

makes me think, what legacy do i leave? what was my defining moment? how does this impact my children? it is still in our hands no?!

thanks for sharing.

oh wow, when I read your words "no day but today" I immediately teared up. One of the most powerful and beautiful songs ever written...
I am sorry for your loss.

I'll never forget him, he was one of the best, he is in my heart forever.
Thank-you for the picture
