Get the address and send him a snail mail and tell him what you're telling us here. That you love him, but know that he has to work this out for himself... but here are some of the memories that you have been recalling and you think he will enjoy recalling them as well.

And maybe some cards... those "thinking of you" kind of cards... It might be nice for him to look forward to the mail.

That's just what I would do.
