I can see them as two old men sitting on a boat fishing or sitting outside by a grill with beers talking about when they were young. I hope that this is a lifelong friendship.

Stevie, you send the message to boys that it's alright to cry. You're such a positive role model. Such a loving, heartwarming moment. I hope you and Owen have a lot more wonderful years together. Maybe even godfathers to each other's children when you grow up.
