To "the real deal"...from your "real deal"...Until we meet again, my heart…my new best friend. You have changed me forever and I am profoundly grateful to have had the blessing of knowing and loving your gorgeous spirit. I feel you with us all. I see you. This was a night of clarity for us. The hardest part was a lifetime waiting to meet you. I love you, eternally. less
