Hi all
I know it’s been a while since i posted anything and it is with the saddest heart i write today. My best friend Steve Smith from Virginia lost a valient fight against cancer. It isnt very often in life you find a “true” friend we all have friends but if were lucky we find “true” friend and i was lucky to have Steve. Steve drove truck and i met him long ago at work he delivered for Stoneville furniture and from that day on he was known as Steve from Stoneille. Throughout my battle with aplastic anemia Steve called me every day to cheer me up with a bad joke or talk about his day but he always started the conversation with how are you doing today. Before i went in for my transplant he took a trip up to mass. just to see me and after i got out and could be around people he came up again this picture is from that time after transplant it’s a memorie i will treasure forever. Steve was diagnosed with cancer 3 months ago if that long and was told worse case scenario 6 months to live it took him in 3 months and i thought i had time with him time to send him things like the mullet wig i bought for him because he lost his hair and the card and cd’s i made for him of funny things collected over the years to pick him up and make him laugh. I regret not sending things sooner to him but like everyone i didnt see this coming so soon and it hurts it hurts so bad. To think i will never hear his voice again never play the video games we played together forever Final Fantasy the game he got me hooked on never to see dirtydog again on the game hanging out doing things together we knew would get us killed but did it anyway because it was fun to party together. A truer friend i will never have and the hurt i have today is like the hurt when a family member passes away because Steve was family to me he was more than a friend i considered him a brother. As i sit here crying as i write this thinking of the lifetime of memories i have because of him it makes me even sadder that i won’t have any more great times with my brother and best friend and how much i will miss him. Life can be cruel sometimes and this is one of those times Steve turned 46 this past saturday to young to have life cut short. 
Steve will live on in my heart and soul i will treasure the great memories i have and the influence he had on my life. Steve i want you to know i will miss you my brother you were the best friend anyone could ask for and i will miss you sooooooooo much so much and i hurt inside so much rest in peace my friend and brother.
Love Scott
