Well here I am making another page for a very dear friend who passed away.. ONLY this time I knew him pretty well, so it saddens me to do but I know in doing this page it will help me and others to Let Go and Remember (James) Fast_104 / akaprez for the great man he was.
As I sit here reminiscing in my mind, 3 years ago when I first meet akaprez in FOBW Chat, he was a quiet man, of small print. I use to hug him , as I hug all ( or try to) and he always reply  back with a ty ds for your kindness or just smile at me and thank me for noticing him. I would tell him to go BOLD LOL a term in chat meaning make your colors darker he he I have a little trouble seeing lightness .But that's where my friendship with him started. He was in the hospital at the time, so he had a laptop he used to keep him company. I was just coming back to the rooms of AA and prez would talk (type) to me in pm and try to help me with what ever major crisis I was having ( in the early days everything is !! LOL ) We soon stated talking on the phone and that's when I learned his Biker name "Smooth" I loved it and I love Bikes/bikers the whole 100 yards LOL . SO as you see for me James, Jim, akaprez, "smooth", fast_104 I will truly miss him. I had a feeling this past few weeks something was wrong, ya know that deep gut feeling, well now I know and He is Finally at Peace.
I remember him telling me on one occasion,  that he was tired, had enough wanted out...that the Bikers World was  taking its toll on him, 
but when he told me that was his life, I understood. God, I will miss you !
I know for a fact a lot people from FOBW chat will miss you.
 This year at Cooks  I will be letting go of him and saying my good-byes . I will also do the same with our good friend wheee123. I am taking there pics with me and Letting them go up on Serenity Rock. Last year I said good- bye to my dear sweet friend biggestbiker, God rest his soul. So as the saying goes for this is not the end, only a beginning for him, He will live on in our hearts and memories forever, I know he will always be in my heart. God Bless    ds
