Kamui,  Thank you so much. Yes, this was a huge help. Your suggestion 
"for/to true friend" is the best one for the inscription. What dictates 
whether "ni" or "e" is used?

Also, can you tell me, is it appropriate to use the word "keiai" ?  The 
dictionary says "respect and affection" and I was going to sign a note 
with the word.

I'm amazed at how many words there are for seemingly the same thing, but 
if one steps outside of the dictionary and into how they are all used 
the variance is huge!

Thanks again for clearing a path for me through all these words.

Celtkin
