Eddy’s heart felt heavy as he sat in his favorite chair, the one by the window where he could watch the world go by. In his hands was a book, its cover worn from years of being touched with love, its pages holding memories, laughter, and stories of a friendship that had spanned decades. The book was about his good friend, Patrick Sercu, who, sadly, had left this world on April 19, 2019.

Patrick had been more than just a friend to Eddy. He was a brother, a companion, and a mentor. Their bond had been formed in the most unlikely of places—a shared love for cycling. Eddy had always admired Patrick’s unwavering determination, his strength, and his infectious enthusiasm. Patrick had achieved greatness as a professional cyclist, winning numerous races and accolades, yet he was always humble, always quick to share a smile and a kind word.

As Eddy flipped through the pages of the book, he recalled the countless moments they had spent together, both on and off the bike. Patrick had been the kind of person who made everything seem brighter. He had a special way of making people feel seen, heard, and valued. Whether they were racing through the countryside, chatting over a cup of coffee, or reminiscing about old times, Patrick’s presence had always brought a sense of warmth and joy.

The book was a tribute to Patrick’s legacy—a celebration of his life, his achievements, and the profound impact he had on everyone who knew him. It was filled with stories from their many adventures together, stories of victories, challenges, and moments of quiet reflection. Eddy had poured his heart into writing it, wanting to preserve the essence of who Patrick had been and the friendship they had shared. Every page was a testament to the man who had left an indelible mark on the world, a man whose spirit still lived on in the memories of those who loved him.

As Eddy read through the pages, he could almost hear Patrick’s voice, that familiar laugh, and see the twinkle in his eyes. He remembered the way Patrick would always encourage him to push further, to never give up, no matter how difficult the journey. Patrick had been a true champion, not just on the bike, but in life.

Eddy’s eyes misted over as he thought about the day Patrick had passed. It had been a day he would never forget—one that had changed him forever. The loss was a void that could never be filled, but Eddy found solace in the knowledge that Patrick’s legacy would live on in the stories, the laughter, and the lessons he had left behind.

The book was not just a collection of words; it was a way to keep Patrick alive in their hearts. It was a way for Eddy to honor his friend, to ensure that future generations would know the incredible person that Patrick had been. Every page was a reminder of the strength of their friendship and the power of memories to transcend time.

Though Patrick was no longer physically present, Eddy knew that his spirit would continue to guide him. As long as he had the book in his hands, he would never truly be alone. Patrick would always be with him, in every word, every memory, and every smile. And as Eddy closed the book, he whispered, “Thank you, my friend, for everything.”
