I have been thinking a lot about a friend of mine. We were high school buddies, and I was the best man at his wedding in 1993.
He moved away, and I had not seen him in 20 years. He lived in northern Wisconsin, and 2 days ago I decided to look up his address on the computer, so I could visit with him.
Instead of his address, I ended up finding his obituary. He died July 13th.
His heart gave out. Ken was only 62.

I’m sick over this. Had I acted sooner, I could have seen him one more time.
It sucks.

The one real positive I have in this is that I know he is in heaven. I witnessed to him back in 1978 and lead him to the Lord.
It was right after I had accepted Jesus as my saviour. Ken was from my teen years, when my dad had died and I was pretty much a teen drunk. I asked him to go for a walk with me, as I got up the nerve to talk to him. I really thought he would think I was some kind of “Jesus freak”. I told him “I have told you I love you, and if I don’t share what happened to me, then I am a liar” I couldn’t look at him, as I poured my heart out. I expected that when I did look at him, he would be laughing at me. Instead, he had tears going down his face, and he said “you’re right. If you wouldn’t have told me this, you wouldn’t love me” then we prayed together, while sitting on a curb on 21st and Layton ave. In Milwaukee.
So I have that to hold onto, and the knowledge that I will see him when it’s my time to go “home”.

You should go back to the corner and take a picture. When you feel blue take a look at it.

It's so easy to beat ourselves up thinking why didn't I try harder, maybe some interaction with me could have altered this or that. It's a wicked mental cycle of beat downs.

Very sorry for your loss, Alan.
