When I first met you, I thought you were weird and that you were someone who I wouldn’t become friends with. But you
are one of my best friends and I'm so glad to have met you. We
met in health class and I remember when they called your name I thought about how weird you were. But now that I know you, I know you are weird in a good way. You go against the grain of
others, you follow your path and even though you might see yourself as someone shy, I see you as strong and powerful.

 

When we first started to hang out, you got me to come to color
guard tryouts with you, and you got me out of my comfort zone
immediately. We met some good friends over our time in mar-
ching band together but none of them have stuck. I know I can
always count on you to be there for me when others aren't. I remember going to Central after school and before Friday foot-
ball games to get pizza and chicken tenders The late-night bus
rides home when we would listen to music together and share
the different music we liked are moments I will never forget.

 

Now that we live in different states from each other I always find myself thinking I'm gonna text Falon to hang out, but I for-
get you're not here anymore. So instead, I text you to see how you are doing. I love to hear how you and Percy are doing and how the new apartment is. I know you have been going through
so much recently and I just hope you know I love you and I will
always be here to support you.
