((Rest In Peace Jack Shipley))

((Well in three weeks from now it will be the anniversary of the day my friend Jack Shipley died. Him and I were friends since kindergarten. Over the years we tried our best to take time to see each other once a year. Jack was the one who got me interested into the Grand Theft Auto games. I bought Grand Theft Auto IV in his honor after he died. It's been almost three years since his passing. He died June 9, 2012 at the age of nineteen. I didn't know until three days later. When I found out I was so heart-broken that I didn't know what to do. My mom and dad told me he died. What happened was I was planning to get together with Jack. I went to tell my mom about it. They were outside in the backyard when I came out and told them. My mom looked at my dad and asked him if I should know what happened and my dad said that I should. My mom looked at me straight in the eyes and said "Chris, Jack died!" I thought they were joking at first but then my dad said that my mom wasn't joking. I then started crying and pounding my fists in to the concrete walkway around the pool. I was heartbroken at what happened. I still am now three years later. It's hard to lose a friend that way. I still carry that pain with me today. Thank you all for listening and remember this make sure you take time out of you life to be with your friends because you don't know what might happen to them years from now.))
