I know Mr. Rupert from work. There was something in the way he carried himself and spoke that made you so happy to see him whenever he came to the area. I'm going to miss him terribly, even the way he'd say my name... I can hear it now! But, I know he's happy to be with his beloved again. To the family, I pray you find solace in the sweet memories.
