"Sometimes, no matter how much faith we have, we lose people. But you never forget them. And sometimes, it's those memories that give us the strength to go on"

"God saw you were getting tired
And a cure was not meant to be
So he put his arms around you
And whispered come with me
With tearful eyes we watched you
As we saw you pass away
Although we love you deeply
We could not make you stay
Your golden heart stopped beating
Hard working hands at rest
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best..." <3
_{~  ALEX-
             Caring and funny
              Lover of cars and girls
             Brother of Nick
              Son of Steve and Carol
             Friends with Luke,Jar,Craig and Zach
             Who needs money, a cold one and "Good Times"
              Who would like to see Luke hold a job
              Who gives love and good high fives
               Who fears noone and nothing but spiders
              Who lives in a house up the street from " John Georges".
