Tonight, the participants of AIDS/LifeCycle, as well as our friends and families, honor the memory of everyone we have lost to this disease. As we gather on the beach this evening in Ventura, California, I ask each of you take a moment to reflect on your own memories and the impact HIV and AIDS have had on your own life. We must come together to put a stop to the spread of HIV while helping those living with HIV and AIDS to live in good health and with the dignity and respect they deserve as our brothers and sisters.
Bless you all!
I remember my friend Keith, who took his own life 8 years ago to end the pain,lonliness, anguish and suffering of his disease of 18 years, AIDS.
ReplyDeleteTo you my friend I will always remember you. You were there when I needed a friend, and for that I will be forever grateful.
