To all,
In the end, the bitter-sweet taste of our departure remains a natural part of our experience. The laughs, the tears, and all the things we've accomplished won't forgotten in the hearts of those who we have influenced. You all have influenced me and you all have given me a part of your life. For that fact, I am extremely thankful. Don't forget about your missteps and/or mistakes because whatever doesn't kill you... only makes you stronger. You may have wished that we all could have been better friends, better team members, better people... but the truth is this: it is hard being better, when we are already amazing with our own imperfections. I am a futuristic thinker, and you all have proved to me, that you are all going to be successful in your own personal way. Today I cried. Because I realized that I am leaving a place I love so dearly. I love this place because of people like you, people who have made this place the hidden gem of the north country, a.k.a. South Canada. I will miss you all and I will always remember you. I also want you to know, that if I am able and you need my help, you will always have a friend in me. My doors will always be open to you all.
With tears in my eyes,
Eric Bran
