Hey guys,

I am not trying to be depressing here, but I needed to get this off my chest.  My mom just called me and told me that my Godfather passed away.  I cannot stop crying.  He lives in Texas with his wife (they have only been married about 2-3 years) and he was just here 2 weeks ago to visit.  It was good to see him so happy because he went through a lot when my Godmother passed away.  I feel so bad for my cousin because now both of his parents are gone.  I miss him so much.  He was there for me  when my dad wasn't.  I was so excited to see him again and was looking forward to our email exchanges again and now he is gone.  He passed away in his sleep which is the best way to go but its hard because it was so unexpected.    I am sorry to bore you guys with this and bring more depressing subjects to the list, it is late here and you guys are the closest family I have to talk to right now.
