“Derek Christen, you were one of the few I would drop everything for if you needed me. One that if you called and had a problem, no matter where it was, he would be there as fast as he could. I know you would do the same. I don’t know why I put it here…I guess I hope you see it. You just told me about the tenth anniversary of my brother’s accident. Now this. At least our last words yesterday were ‘I love you.’ Be calm. And for Jake Christen. I remember how many times you complained that you could never grow a beard to cover your tie. I appreciate everything you did for and with me. We will also miss you very much.”
