Blake, I miss you so much already. This all still doesn’t seem real; like a bad dream… You were so loved and I promise you, I will make sure the memory of you lives on. My heart breaks for Mylah right now, we all know how much you loved her. Watch over her and the rest of us, man. Love you more than you know.
