I recently received an email from a man who was having difficulty with the remote control to his garage door. In a nutshell, the remote would only operate the door if his car was sitting directly in front of the garage.

“Goodbyes are not forever. Goodbyes are not the end. They simply mean I’ll miss you until we meet again.”  -–Unknown

Do you remember the first time you heard that one of your best friends had passed away? No doubt it was a sad experience, to say the least.

It’s hard enough losing someone you care about as an adult, but it’s even harder when you’re too young to understand why.

This is the story of my childhood friend, Charles…  [Read more…]
