• Thursday evening I came home and unsuccessfully tried to watch Star Wars Ep VI, but after giving up I went to room where I saw I had two text messages. I read them only to find they were from my sister, a friend from AR had passed. His name was Robert, and I'm not sure if I've ever mentioned him before. He was working in Louisiana on an oil rig. He was in an elevator when I pipe swung down and crushed his skull, he was wearing a helmet but it cracked through it. Robert was an amazing guy, I know everyone says what was best about people after they die, but he really was a great person. He was always smiling, at 21 he had crows feet and laugh wrinkles from his constant grin. He was the kind of person that made you feel silly for being angry or upset over something petty, for he was always happy. He really had a way of lighting up a room. He was strong, gorgeous looking, and had a great personality. He had been dating a girl name Laken for sometime and they had plans to get married sometime in the upcoming year. His best friend was T.J. and he was good friends with my sister. While I only knew him for 2 months during my stay in AR he really did have a positive impact on me. He was so laid back and happy go lucky, his positive attitude was infectious. He was the first person I met when I went to AR, he had been working on my sister's house with T.J. Since he died in Louisiana they aren't allowing his body to cross state line without being embalmed, but since his father was an Indian Chief (or something of that nature) he will have to be cremated. If you are religious, please keep him and his family in your prayers. He was truly a great guy and I hope his soul rests well in a better place. His death may have been tragic, especially only being at the age of 21, barely an adult, but hopefully his death didn't go without reason and someday we will be able to see that reason, whether it be in death or in life. ~no quote~
