Memories

Today I can remember a dear friend of mine, his name was Bret Leiphart. Today is special cause it would have been his 36th birthday today, February 12th.

He passed away about 10 years ago, on Jan.31st due to a snowmobile accident and I miss him dearly. Even though we were just friends at the time, it was a horrible lost to me mostly cause I spent 7 years of my life with him from 10th grade through 2 years into college before we split up. At one time we even talked marriage.

Something funny to post about him is the fact that every year on his birthday he thought he was speciaL, cause he was born on Abraham Lincoln's birthday. He always said he was the man on this day and he was blessed to celebrate Abe's birthday with him. What a nut. He was so proud and truly thought this day was dedicated to him and not Abe when they mentioned Feb.12th every year.

He was my memories in high schooL. There is nothing more precious than memories in schooL and I guess that is what hurts the most knowing he is no longer here and those memories are so strong. So, I just wanted to mention his birthday today cause I'm sure his family & friends are thinking of this special day today! Miss you Bret!
