MAX

My Captain, my Brother, my Comrade, my Friend
We mourn with a broken heart your untimely end
We hold to the memory of good times gone by
And smile with tears falling as we look to the sky

For we know with God’s mercy you’re waiting up there
And soon we will join you, this I declare
My Captain, my Brother, my Comrade, my Friend
Your new life beginning where there is no end

See you soon C.A.S.

RIP my Brother. You will be sorely missed.
