Today, we lost a very special friend, Pierre "Rocky" Hall.  He was, at one time, my partner, and he remains my friend.  Some liked him and some did not.  Others were indifferent or judgmental.  I just cared about him, my friend.
So I wrote the message below to him.  He'll get it.  🙂
Hey Rock...it's me.  Remember CRAB LEGS TUESDAYS!?  That was our time, every week.  Still, I'll be with you every Tuesday, and it will continue.
For you my friend, please know that I love you so much and I will miss you.  Tuesdays were always phenomenal at our house.  We had our ups and downs that only a few knew about, but, it was good.  The good far outweighed the bad. I wish more people would have had the opportunity to see the light and the change I saw in you.     
I will miss our weekly calls and the way you made me laugh until it hurt.  Simply, I will miss you.  I am thankful I got the chance to know the real you and not what you wanted others to think of you. I got to know the authentic YOU and I will miss the AUTHENTIC you.  
You did that, Rock.  At the end of the day, education was important to you, contrary to popular belief. I watched you work through your 1st degree and I was so proud of you.  I wish I could have seen you complete your 2nd degree.  

I am with you, Rock...forever and a day...
