Stephen was one of my first friends. We went to the same church and we were friends for our elementary school years. He was a very special person and, as often happens, I see his specialness more clearly now than I did when we were kids. He was a gentle, quiet, funny guy. No pretenses. We grew apart for many reasons but I never lost total track of him. My parents and Stephen's parents were friends. I hadn't seen him in many years when he died, but I felt like I would miss him...and I have.
