Facebook is a wonderful tool, however, sometimes it brings terribly sad news that reminds us of our own mortality.
Today I found out that one of my best friends from elementary, middle, and high school has died. As of right now, I do not have the details but judging from some responses to the post it was a complete surprise.
It has me remembering simpler times of childhood and hoping my children have the opportunity to have such good friends in their lives. We used to play superheros in his backyard with our good friends Amy and Laura who lived next door. In fact, if it weren't for Amy and Laura, I would not have known Mikey until we were in middle school since he went to the catholic school. He was a good listener and a good friend.. never judging..
The news has me sad and wondering what happened. Hoping that his family finds peace. It also reminds me that life is short and we need to live life to the fullest.
Mikey, you will be missed....
