Bones at thirteen
is alive and well.

Just ask his friends
Marika,
Butch,
Wawa,
Muck,
Felix,
and me.

They’ll tell you
all about him.

He always has a smile
on his face.

No client could take that
away from him.

They could take
everything else
away from him.

However
they couldn't take his smile,
his laughter,
or his pleasant disposition.

Try as they might.

Bobby

Bones is very strong despite the hand life dealt him.
However, I have learned from Bones through your words.

Thanks Eric,

Yes, that's the way I remember him sitting on the settlement house steps so many years ago.

I'm very pleased you have learned from Bones.

Thanks dear Juju,

Yes, we were all very good friends. We were more like family than family.

Love Bobby
