Dear Sir...Teto...
Friend.
It is with a heavy heart that I write to you, and I am finding that I am having a difficult time with words. I believe for the last while I have been in denial that you were actually leaving the land, so to post a supportive response here would have meant acceptance. But then, I considered what a shame it would be to allow you to leave without being supported by all those who were blessed to know you.
As one who values integrity, good character, and honor above all else, I consider you one of my treasured friends. I suppose I would describe you as being full of those commonly respected traits that are not so commonly displayed. Thank you for that.
My wish is that you would not leave, but if you must, my wish will be that you find happiness and that, wherever you go, you will be treated with the kindness and respect that you deserve.
