I have many wishes for you, and my first one is for challenges: challenges that will stimulate you, bless you with a sense of purpose, inspire passion, and provide gratification. The challenges you will accept to tackle are the substance of your life. They will mold and define you.

I wish you choices to make: choices that will help you find your true self. Amidst the vulnerability, which accompanies difficult decisions, remember that answers will come to you when you have discovered who you truly are, when you have befriended your spirit, and in the stillness, listened to its guiding voice.

In the last year, Kevin was able to reach deep within himself and transcend the inevitable. He grew through his illness, and, as fate would have it, endeared himself to all who accompanied him through these difficult times. We saw a man transformed, able to detach from his failing body, becoming pure spirit; a loving, generous, concerned spirit who thought only of others. The outpouring of his soul into the universe left no one untouched.

For me, there could have been no greater manifestation of courage and selfless love. His dwindling energy was spent sparing me. That is who he was…that is what he did for me. My stoic hero inspired me every day and carried me through the horror and the solemnity of our last moments together.

I love you always.

As I was writing these final words overlooking the pink dawn in our backyard, I remembered that today is a day of darkness. I know however that he would want all of us to appreciate the holiday season with our loved ones and expect and welcome the returning light to which he now belongs.

When we launched our enterprise some 10 years ago, we were all well aware that the pertinence of the services we offered could only be validated by our client's reception. We believed in what we had to offer but the verdict was still out as to whether or not you would believe in it as well. Slowly, over the years, we have come to know that, yes, you do believe, and our stellar performance of the last few years is due in part to your enthusiastic contribution but also because of your constant input through your varied needs and suggestions.

We view our relationship as a partnership. Your requirements become our inspiration to always reach further and perform better. We strive to make sure we can always supply you with your dreams made real. And sometimes, when we get lucky, we can even come up with something useful all by ourselves.

Look at me my love,
Take my hand
And remember,
I want you to join me
Wherever I am.
Whatever the obstacles
No matter how far,
I want you to join me
However you are.
