Don's Birthday

What can I say but Happy Birthday my friend. I miss and think of you often. Just like my dad, you're in my thoughts daily and I remember all the great times we sat to talk over tea at your house. We adopted Sadie from the pound in NYC on your bithday one spring. I remember it like it was yesterday. We joked because you were Taurus and I am Gemini. Now is the time you would be out in your garden enjoying your lilacs and the iris were just about in bloom. Often you already started your garden...a small plot but always productive just the same. You weren't fussy, you'd plant tomatoes anywhere there was room and always said, "maybe this year the peach tree would make peaches" Ironically, the year after you left us, the tree made many fruit like never before. We love and miss you Don and your kindness and friendship is everlasting. Thanks for being such a good friend.

Your friend always,

Paul
