Nobody thought this day would come. Unexpected it was for them. Heart-breaking for many and tears. The day nobody thought was coming... had reached arrival.

"I can't believe he's... gone." Alice's weak forming voice echos off her lips.

It only had been a day since she gotten the news. Her dear friend, Fred Andrews has passed away. Her heart broke at the realization. It has been twenty years since they last went to a funeral for an Andrews. Fred died at the age 52.

"I know it doesn't feel real." Hermione says as she tries to wipe away her tears.

They stared at the lowering casket with pleading looks. This can't be real. He can't be gone. He was just fine the other day. FP couldn't believe it. The day he got the call was still buzzing in his head.

"Fred Andrews has passed from a—" He let the phone slip from his hand and nearly collapsed before his son caught him.

He stared at his friend's memorial picture as if he would magically appear saying," I gotcha, Buddy!" That never came, instead Fred's face remained cold.

He listened as Alice squeezed his hand tightly and tears threaten to fall from his eyes. He didn't want to cry. Fred would always say. "This isn't goodbye." But it was. He wasn't going to be there with him. How was he supposed to keep Archie from falling? There was no answer to that question.

FP cleared his throat," Me either..." He sounds hoarse and weakened.

Alice kisses his cheek, whispering in his ear. "He's not in pain, Baby. He's with his dad now." Even Alice sounded hoarse through the whisper.

He whispered," We take care of our own." More tears slid down his cheeks as the cold braced his skin.

"Never forgotten..." Hermione said through a sniffle.

She was right. He would never be forgotten. He will walk through their hearts, souls and enjoy— get out of Riverdale for one... final time.

Alice and FP sniffled as they looked at the pictures. "Never forgotten."

On a serious note. I'm deeply saddened by the news about Luke Perry's passing due to complications of a massive stroke. He will be missed by many. He brought joy and smiles to our faces. He will never be forgotten. March 4th 2019 will always mark our hearts. And we lost our beloved hot dad, Fred Andrews.

Don't pressure the cast or the writers to resume filming. You have to understand that they lost someone close to them. Also put yourself in their shoes. I completely understand why and I think they should take their time to grief. He wasn't a fictional character. He was real.

His family is devastated and his Riverdale family is too. We will mourn his death. We need to stick together. We all lost him and there doesn't need to be hate.

I cried during lunch. I just wanted to pay tribute to him. Also I was at my grandma's and she said this. "Don't cry." She was talking about him on the tv. There he was on a hallmark movie and man I wanted to cry. He will be missed.

Rest in P.E.A.C.E.... Luke ❤️🙏🏻
