Notes: 9 / 6 months ago

Well, I’ve run out of pictures of my own to share. If I come across anymore, or any one wants to submit more, or would like to share a story or statement, etc feel free to either submit or send an ask. Otherwise, I suppose I am going to leave this blog as is. I wish I could keep posting on it for forever, but that’s not very realistic. However, while I don’t have a never ending supply of photos of Stephen to post, I do have a never ending supply of memories in my head and heart of all the amazing times I shared with him. Wonderful memories that I will replay for the rest of my life. I know that you all have your own memories and I hope that you never forget them and keep them in your heart for all time.

Stephen and I had many conversations about what we wanted out of life, like all good friends do, and more than anything he wanted to be remembered in the hearts and minds of his friends and family when he was gone. He worried a lot that he wasn’t leaving a big enough imprint on the world, since many of his friends were only online and most of his correspondences were through email and texts. He said to me in an email once:

“What I want… what I think I want… is to ensure that my name is always in the thoughts and on the tongues of those that love me. To touch hearts… through my words and through my acts… and ensure that I am not forgotten, and to let others know I have not forgotten them either.”

I think he would be beyond pleased to know just how many of your lives he actually touched, and just how deeply he touched them. Even people he didn’t know, per se. His death was incredibly sudden and it’s been hard for me to cope with. I’ve been trying to find a way to find closure and I think that the best way for me to honor Stephen is simply to never forget him and the love he so eagerly shared with me and every single other person who knew him. I’ve never met another human being as full of love and as selfless as he was and it really was an honor just to know him. After great thought on how to honor my friend’s passing, the conclusion I’ve come up with is that the best way is the easiest…. Just to never, ever forget him. I would extend the same suggestion to all of you. If you loved Stephen, whether he knew you or not, keep that love for him in your heart and keep his memory alive forever. That is the real secret to eternal life… Never being forgotten. That was Stephen’s goal in life and in his death, I’d like it to live on.
