SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE

I lost a dear friend today.

He was part counselor, part spiritual advisor but mostly he was a strong role model in my AA Journey these past 7 years

His death was a shock and completely unexpected

Bob was a priest, a relatively young priest (About my age) who helped me navigate through some rough waters by providing a strong ethical and moral compass rooted in my faith.

I will miss you Father Bob
Until we meet again

 It's always difficult to lose a friend and mentor. I'm sorry for your loss.
Never ignore those who care for you
you will have lost diamonds
while you were collecting stones

Yes it is.
Ruben is taking it a bit hard also. He was baptized by him when he was 6

 We never know when the Grim Reaper is going to come riding into our neighborhood do we? Life is a whimsical ride along a narrow path with one side against the face of a cliff, and the other side dropping off into eternity.

Condolences on the death of your friend, may his spiritual beliefs be real and bring him a new life of splendor and love...david

 Hugs to you and the family.
There is a difference between a good BJ and a bad BJ.

I believe when we let people in we open ourselves up to be hurt; However, life for me would be very lonely and unbearable without friendships that do more than just scratch the surface
Thanks
