are you tough?

nope, not tough at all
was walking the local cemetery today and came across a stone with a single date on it, and an epithet that read "can't wait to get to know you"

brings tears to my eyes just thinking of it

A friend died of spinal meningitis, 20+ years ago..( he was 22..). I drop by his site occasionally, & still wonder what would he would have done,if alive...
