Skal,
Les A. Cofer |
My name is Joey Michael Cofer, I was given my middle name after you. You were my father's best friend, and still are after death. They told me I had an imaginary friend when I was younger named Tommy. I believe it was you watching over him and his family. I like to believe you are still there watching over us. I never knew you in person, but the strong love my father has for you makes it seem like you were always there. You will never be forgotten.
