silence.

excuse my silence. the last few days have been a bit uneasy for me. a friend of mine, and former co-worker was reported missing in matamoros the next morning after the diez y seis de septembre celebrations that i was at myself.

to make a long agonizing story short, his body was found this thursday morning. charlie was a really good guy... i saw him often at the grocery store at night, we talked each time. and... its going to feel different now. i probably wont go back for awhile because i want to still believe he is still on the floor, leading his cashiers.

so charlie was funny. and he was a gentlemen... when i had the pleasure of being his boss, he was always one of the most helpful, committed and honest. i extend my deepest sympathy to his family and the rest of his friends... they all turned brownsville and matamoros inside out trying to find him.

bye charlie.

your friend
steven
