Is It Raining In Heaven?

For what is probably the first time in my life, I'm at a loss for words. I've been listening to Queen's No-One But You over and over: "One by one / Only the good die young / They're only flying too close to the sun."

Yesterday was one of the worst days of my life as I got the news of Rowan's tragic death. Not only was he loved by everyone whose lives he had touched, but he was a passionate, positive human being who put his heart and soul into everything he did - 110%.

Where do I begin to describe something that has boomed from the word go into a friendship that has enriched my life in more ways than one?

Rowan, I don't know what to say. You were taken away to soon. I still can't believe it. Our daily chats on Facebook, your phone calls and emails always made me smile - even when you were feeling down, you always knew what to say to make me feel better. In your eyes, no person was less important than the other.

I regret not spending more time with you. I find comfort in the thought that you are now making music in a better place.

Until we meet again,

RIP my friend.

PS: I will never forget you!

My heart goes out to Rowan's mother, Nancy, and the rest of his family and friends - you are in my thoughts and prayers.
