I met Josh when we were about 15. We were very close for a few years. After my parents divorced, I moved to Chattanooga. Josh and I didn't keep in touch very often. But when we did get to talk, usually for our birthdays because he was only 9 days older than me, we spoke as though only minutes had passed. I loved him. He loved me. I last spoke to him for our birthdays. It wasn't until our birthdays came around again that I found out he was gone. I don't know what happened in that short time. All I know is that I miss my friend. My Yoshi.
