"I know we have fundamental differences in our beliefs but that doesn't matter to me. I have aged enough to know that friends transcend those fences. It's been a true and wonderful pleasure to see you come up in the world and make something of yourself. You have a great wife as we all know the old saying.😉 Brahm as you are a friend for life I'm very proud of you and are honored to know you. You are an inspiration to me to know that not only did we survive childhood that we can do anything we put our minds to. Happy Birthday brother and many many returns!🤙🏻"

Seth Heath, 2017

I hadn’t been in touch with Seth for several years after our relationship ended, but when his daughter reached out asking for photos, it brought back many memories from the eight years we shared together.

We had so many adventures spending time outdoors kayaking, scuba diving, biking, and fishing on the beach. We began our diving journey together, and Seth was a wonderful dive buddy. He was also an incredible cook he made the best steak and eggplant parmesan I’ve ever had, and I still think about those meals to this day.

Seth had a good heart. While we weren’t meant to be, we shared many meaningful moments, and I always hoped he would find someone who accepted him exactly as he was, just as he wanted.

My thoughts are with his family during this difficult time.
