You may be gone, but you will never be forgotten

Martin,

As I sit down to write this letter, my heart is heavy with the weight of your absence. The pain of losing you is still fresh, and I find myself grappling with the reality of your passing.

I remember the last time we spoke. We made plans for summer vacations and now… It's hard to believe that you're no longer here with us. The grief is overwhelming.

I've been thinking a lot about what to wear to your funeral, wanting to honor you in the best way possible. Especially how much you appreciated a good attire. I know it's not about the clothes, but about paying tribute to your memory with respect and dignity.

The funeral arrangements have been made, and it's surreal to think that it’s going to be yours. This past week Olivia, Mike and Tom have been helping with the funeral arrangements too. We had so many question that really felt so trivial in the face of your loss. But I know that these details are important for those left behind, trying to navigate this difficult time.

As I prepare to say my final goodbyes, I find myself wondering what to say at your funeral. There are no words that can fully express the depth of my sorrow or the magnitude of your impact on my life.

You were more than a friend; you were family, and your presence will be deeply missed.

I will forever cherish the moments we had together and hold onto the lessons you taught me about love, friendship, and the beauty of life itself.

Rest in peace, my dear friend. You may be gone, but you will never be forgotten.

With love and eternal gratitude,

Sean
