I don't feel sad because people who makes the sun shine a little more brighter, who becomes the salt of the earth, goes to the good place.

All I can say is Thank You, through your work I got to know you and even though you weren't perfect I love you. I'll be good so we met in heaven.

Your legacy will live in our hearts

It's one of my favourites for two reasons:
