To Cindy and David’s children

David Castaneda AKA (Weedlen)

Hey Weedlen remember when we met in 1980? We went through a lot in our life. You were the strongest person i knew and you never let on about any ailments to this day and just dealt with life. You weren’t afraid of anyone or anything! I’m writing you this because I never told you these things before. I wish we would have spoken more before you departed. I pray that you receive this letter somehow, and know that I think of you and all your family a lot. It’s a lot of years to say goodbye to and I’ll keep praying that I see you again.

Your friend Artie/Lindsey
