Just got back to my desk at work. What a great service. It was great to see everyone.

I had an idea of what I wanted to say, but once I started talking, I just got lost in a sea of Daniel thought... I just can't believe it still. I left before breaking down. It was hard to listen to everyone, I mean, I have to give it up to everyone who spoke and cried, and I just didn't want to cry in front of anyone.

I must've almost cried like a baby a couple times. Haha. Once was when I just walked in and sat down then it started to hit me pretty hard. Then almost again Ave was talking. It sorta opened my eyes to go out there more often to hang out with people around here instead of staying home on most nights. Probably not quite yet, but eventually I should come around to heading out to more meets.

I had rivers running a couple moments, when Ave, Arsenii, etc. etc. was giving their speeches. Seeing how many showed up today and the past few meets, I'm really proud and honored to be part of this community.

i held up ok when we arrived... once i saw charlie walk up to the front to the photo of daniel, already crying, i completely lost it. cried my eyes out up the stairs and during most of the memorial.

it was very difficult listening to everyone talk about all the good memories, a few even made me laugh a bit... though, i knew that i could not look at the collages of photos...

the most difficult part was talking to Daniel's mom... i REALLY had to fight to hold the tears back. i cannot imagine the anguish she is going through... :/

thank you to everyone that shared their memories today.

That was a great service. I had so much more to say but my emotions got in the way if you guys couldn't tell. Had a few laughs/ tears but I had a great time remembering Daniel. just like everyone mentioned, we were introduced to what Daniel did as a child, growing up and we introduced everyone to the suby community. His family is so nice, I consider his to be my new mom

Daniel, I still miss and care about you.

Great service guys! i acknowledge those who had the ***** to stand up and talk to the crowd. touching speeches were touching! i give you all Ballz points. this is a new system of rep i just thought up of. hahaha

but seriously,
i did not feel any deep sorrow today, but more of a loving and reassuring feeling because most of us were able to gather today for a good friend and share fond memories that we each had. i felt that Dan was there with us and laughing at all the original stories everyone was telling. Too bad i didnt have the privilege to get to know him as well as many of you.

Daniel, your name will live on upon us and i-crub, we are all famiry.


and as for the drive afterwards to the ocean. XTREME TEAM ASSEMBLE!!!!!!!!!!1 **** YEA!! we better than bear grills.

What did I miss?!?!


And I really enjoyed hearing everyone's stories about Dan... SO touching, and it was great to share a few laughs in between the tears, too. I'm glad that Dan and Kyle fell in love at first sight, because bromances are cute

That **** is classic Kyle. I tried my best to contain my laughter at that point... Man, I shouldn't have been picking on him about the shirt choice, I think it may have dug up some "feelings"
