Not a day goes by that I reach for my phone to call you and tell you something funny or just ask you how your day went. It was fun being with you especially around the holidays. We visited your house last

Recently, I have been thinking hard about Paul’s car – specifically, though it is still difficult even now to use any version of this phrase, the last car Paul owned. Paul drove several different cars during the time I knew him. When we met in 1989, he didn’t have a car: for which I, and hopefully
