Ramble all you want Chuck. Let it out. That's what we're here for.
Find one good thing you guys liked even if it seems insignificant to some or do something small for his family. Then once a year, celebrate his life by remembering and doing that one little thing every year on that anniversary.

And if you can find a way to have that celebration be a reminder to his son of who he was, then his memory won't fade away... My friend Nick passed away this past summer...standing in his hospital room w/all his family watching him labor for his last breaths was hard because I would have assumed him to be immortal...he was so full of life before he got sick, his passing would have never occurred to anyone...his family asked me to speak at his funeral, and to a standing room only large church, I recalled many of the good times that made Nick what he was...remember those times about your friend while you morn his passing...we all go at some time...apparently your friend left a worthwhile memory...smile when you think of him...

Every time I hear Don Henley sing a New York minute it crushes me just because of these types of things. Remember the times together with your friends and family. Be the best friend you can be to all who you know, in the end it is not the toys or the money, its those memories stored that are of great value. I always thought of photography, pictures of times together as one of the greatest gifts you can give to someone you care for because it catches these moments.
CTT keep a pic of your friend somewhere where you will see it often. In time it will not be something that makes you sad but something that brings a smile to your heart every day.
