One of my close friends, someone who I care a great deal about, has passed away from a blood clot.
I wanted to make this epitaph for a while now but could never really put the words of what to say about Snowie together. When I found out, I didn't want to believe it, deep down I wanted it to be some sort of misunderstanding or miscommunication altogether. Even after a couple of days went by and even up to this day I still can't believe it. It's something that has been dwelling on my mind ever since I heard.
A lot of you never knew who he was. Well I'm here to tell you.
He was one of the sweetest people I've ever had the pleasure of talking to/be friends with. He was such a wonderful kindhearted person who always wanted others to be happy. He always showed encouragement and support for others who he wanted to see happy and do well with life.
Snowball, you were such a amazing person to me and even as I type this, I can't help but just cry...
We may have lost touch over the past couple of years but I still cherished every time I got to spend with you. I will always remember our long evening talks, letting each other know how each others day went, what was going on in each others lives, telling each other about stories we've had from the past. To this day I still remember the story, you told me about your adventures with trucking, and how you first got into Harry Potter by listening to the audiobook while you were driving those long trucking nights. I couldn't help but think of you every time I saw one of those big loading trucks traveling those long distances. Now whenever I see one, all I can do is just cry and think of you.
I always looked forward to calling you in the evenings after I got out of school when I or you got the chance to. Was always so much fun and made going to highschool a bit more easier for me to handle. We'd always have fun just rambling on about whatever was going on, even teasing you about your age when you occasionally didn't know things like Tetris.
And whenever I had such a horrible day, you were there to listen. Also when I was going through a really hard time, with my breakup with Jazz, you were there for me, talking me through it all and reassuring me that everything will be ok. Then when I was so doubtful on myself that I would never get together with Agrippa, you always told me all the time, "It's going to happen, I know it will. You have to believe in yourself, son."
And it did.
You were right, Papa.
Even though things in the end never worked out with him, I know you were still supportive of me as you always have been.
Then when we both were slowly drifting apart, you still took the time to check on me on occasion to know you still loved me and cared about how I was doing. Now when I look back on the messages and notes you've sent me, I wish I took more time out of my day to show that I cared for you too. I feel like a total fucking asshole for not doing so....and now I only hope that deep down and my final messages to you where something for you to know inside that I still loved and cared about you too...because I do, and I always will...
Please let this be a lesson to all of you, always remember to take a little bit of time if you can to let those friends you've lost touch with that you still care about them, because you never know when they could just be taken away from you and then you'll never get the chance to ever again.
I miss you so much....and I always will.
Rest in Peace, Papa Snowie.....
Your son will always love you....

Losing a friend is never an easy feat and the hurt lasts way too long, but youre a strong guy so i know you'll get yourself together.
I love ya man, and hope you have a good night *Bearhugs ya tightly*
It's always depressing to hear that someone close to another passes away.
I hadn't heard of Snowie before, but you portray him as a wonderful person and thats how I shall envision him.
Though we don't know each other, as is probably the case with a few other commentors, I'm here for you should you want to talk, and they most likely are too.
I hope the rest of May ends up being happy enough for you to overcome the sadness of your loss, so you can look back on Snowie and instead of being sad, you can be happy for knowing such an amazing person, even though he may no longer be around.
He removes his hat and holds it to his torso, hanging his head. My respects and consolances to you.
