My Spring Break Memories

The 15th of April 2006 was the day that one of my good friends Erik got killed. This weekend over the Spring Break 2007 was a year that he had got killed so we were at the cemetery all weekend. On Saturday we were out there at 5 p.m. tell like 12 a.m to say a pray with Erik we all told and showed our feelings for him at the time of need.Then we chilled there with him and had a good time. On Sunday we were to be at the cemetery at 3 p.m. we left at 12 a.m. again there was going to be a Mariachi Band out there to make all the good memories come back from the days that Erik was here with us just how he would have wanted it done us all having a good time. Just thinking that he was right there with us doing all that we were doing. He would say to us don't cry you know I am always here for all of you at anytime I love you all. The day that Erik died a year ago was so hard for me. He was like a big brother to me. He was always there for me and if I need anything he would be there in a heart beat. He always knew how to put a smile on every ones face at anytime and any feelings we are having. I could always count on him to be there for me. It was so hard to see him go and to even realize that he was gone. That still took me a while it hit me after a couple of weeks. Over these past weekend it made me realize that know I know that he is still watching over me and if I do need anything that he is here for me at anytime. So this will be a spring break I will never forget. I will always have the memories of Erik. At the end of the night at the cemetery I told Erik I miss you and I love you you will always be in my thoughts.
