A tribute to my buddy

Dear Lionel,

I know you have gone to a far away place. It have been 2 years since you went to a peaceful and beautiful world. Even though I still cannot believe it happened but I will accept it gradually. He is so cruel to take you away from your family, your loved one and all your closed and good friends. You still have such a bright and wonderful future ahead of you. Your gf is waiting for you to propose to her. All your buddies are also waiting to celebrate when you passed the "hell training" and become a qualified SOF. Yet you are gone because of the mishap during the training.

The hardest thing is... you are always so helpful and kind towards people... You always wear that sunshine smile on your face. You also never give up even when the odds are against you. Your sheer determination, courage and perservance is what make you so different from others. You will always be remembered by those people and buddies who once been through "thick and thin" with you. I will try to learn many of those positive and good things that you once taught me. Even though we do not know each other long, I find that you are such a sincere and good person/friend to be with.

Trust me, I will still want you to be my buddy/friend or even my brother in my next life. Take care and rest in peace in the other world. You will live in my memories forever. May you blessed your family and loved one happiness, joy and peace and watched over them. God bless...

Courage Dispel Fear, Cdo!
