"Dear Edward,
I've gone back and forth the last few days, trying to decide whether or not I should even write this.
In the end, I realized I would regret it if I didn't, so here goes.
I know the last time we saw each other, we weren't exactly hitting the sweetest notes.
It certainly wasn't the way I wanted the trip to end.
I suppose I'm responsible, and for that I'm sorry.
But in all honesty, if I had the chance, I'd do it again.
Virginia said I left a stranger and came back a husband. I owe that to you.
There's no way I can repay you for all you've done for me,
so rather than try, I'm just goingn to ask you to do something else for me.
Find the joy in your life.
You once said you're not everyone.
Well, that's true.
You're certainly not everyone.
But, everyone is everyone.
My parents always said,
'Our lives are streams, flowing into the same river,
towards whatever heaven lies in the mist beyond the falls.'
Find the joy in your life, Edward.
My dear friend,
close your eyes and let the waters take you home..."

"Good afternoon. My name is Edward Cole.
I don't know what most people say at these occasions, because...in all honesty, I...I've tried to avoid them.
The simplest thing is, I loved him and I miss him.
Carter and I saw the world together, which is amazing, when you think that only three months ago, we were complete strangers.
I hope that it doesn't sound selfish of me, but the last months of his life, were the best months of mine.
He saved my life. And he knew it before I did.
I'm deeply pround that this man, found it worth his while, to know me.
In the end, I think it's safe to say that we brought some joy to one another's lives.
So, one day, when I go to some final resting place, if I happen to wake up next to a certain wall with a gate, I hope that Carter's there, to vouch for me, and show me the ropes on the other side."

"Edward Perriman Cole died in May.
It was a sunday, in the afternoon, and there wasn't a cloud in the sky.
He was 81 years old.
Even now, I can't claim to understand the measure of a life.
But I can tell you this, I know that when he died, his eyes were closed, and his heart was open.
And I'm pretty sure he was happy with his final resting place, because he was buried on the mountain, and that was against the law."
